Ferrari takes both the Constructors and Drivers championship titles in the 2025 FIA WEC, the latter thanks to Alessandro Pier Guidi, James Calado and Antonio Giovinazzi. Here are their comments from the Sakhir track.

John Elkann, Ferrari Chairman: “This milestone fills us with pride and represents the fulfilment of a dream – the culmination of a journey we began in 2022, when we decided to return to the top class of endurance racing.

It has been a journey that saw us win Le Mans three consecutive times, and brings us today not only two world titles, but the celebration of the strength of a team that worked as one, facing the relentless challenges of endurance racing with humility, and with the drive to improve every single day.”

Alessandro Pier Guidi, 499P #51: “I think it will take a few days for me to realise what we’ve achieved here in Bahrain. I want to thank the whole team, made up of people who over the past three years have worked tirelessly to reach this goal. We’ve grown step by step, winning three 24 Hours of Le Mans and, at last, managing to clinch the world manufacturers’ and drivers’ titles. This shows that our team was the best throughout an entire season we’ll never forget. I’m happy and proud to be among the drivers who brought Ferrari back to the top of the endurance world.”

James Calado, 499P #51: “I’m proud to be part of this team – today I’ve fulfilled a lifelong dream, becoming world champion with Ferrari. The journey we’ve taken over these three years has been extraordinary: we returned to the top class at Sebring in 2023, immediately taking pole position, and race after race we proved our ability to progress as a team, as well as to extract the full potential of a fantastic car like the 499P. Winning two world titles is truly extraordinary.”

Antonio Giovinazzi, 499P #51: “This is a fantastic day that none of us will ever forget. My first thought is to thank the whole team and my teammates. With Ale and James (Pier Guidi and Calado), from the very first day of this programme we shared a dream – to become world champions. We’ve managed to make it come true, and we end the year with two world titles, manufacturers’ and drivers’. All of this is already part of history.”

Antonio Fuoco, 499P #50: “This has been a perfect weekend in which the whole team did an incredible job. Despite the pressure being high, we did our best without making a single mistake, proving once again that we are a great team. What we’ve achieved over these three years with the 499P is incredible – I’m proud to be part of this project.”

Miguel Molina, 499P #50: “I’m absolutely delighted to end such a fantastic season this way. We’ve finally managed to win the manufacturers’ title, an important result for the team and for the brand. Congratulations to our teammates in the number 51 499P, who clinched the drivers’ title, and thanks to Antonio and Nicklas (Fuoco and Nielsen, Ed.) because, for the third year in a row, we finish the season with a place on the World Championship podium.”

Nicklas Nielsen, 499P #50: “Bringing Ferrari back to winning a world manufacturers’ championship in endurance after so many years is a dream come true and proof of how hard this team has worked, always striving to improve race after race. I want to thank everyone for achieving such an extraordinary result.”

Antonello Coletta, Global Head of Endurance and Corse Clienti: “In Bahrain, we concluded a memorable season by achieving a historic result. The 499P project, with which we returned to the top class of endurance racing, has so far achieved exceptional results, thanks to the three wins at Le Mans, the victory of the World Manufacturers’ title and the success in the Drivers’ title, with the three crews taking the top spots in the standings. I am proud to lead this team and I thank all its members, who were all equally the protagonists of these successes: without their valuable work, passion, and dedication, all of this would not be possible. After the race, seeing all the drivers and the team celebrating together, we had yet another demonstration of how cohesive this group is. Finally, I would like to spare a thought for Andrea De Adamich, who passed away in recent days: I am sure he would have shared our joy for this extraordinary success”.

Ferdinando Cannizzo, Head of Endurance Race Cars: “We have fulfilled the dream of becoming world champions, working hard and with humility to reach this goal. In 2023, by winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans, we immediately realised the strength of the project, and the victories in France over the following two years confirmed that we were on the right path. We built this world success especially last winter, when we worked tirelessly to understand how to fully exploit the potential of this car. I would like to thank the whole Ferrari – AF Corse team and everyone who, both on the track and in Maranello from the remote garage, made it possible for us to experience this joy.”
