The Igol Ennea SRL Ferrari F40 GTE at the 1996 24 Hours of Le Mans
The 1996 running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans marked one of the most fascinating transitional periods in endurance racing history. The field featured a diverse mix of prototype racers and powerful GT machines, including the dominant McLaren F1 GTRs, Porsche GT entries, Chrysler Vipers, and a small but passionate contingent of Ferrari F40 GTEs.
Among them was the striking #44 Ferrari F40 GTE entered by the Italian-based Igol Ennea SRL team. Wearing a memorable blue-and-yellow livery that stood apart from Ferrari's traditional racing colors, the car embodied the spirit of the privateer teams that helped keep Ferrari represented on the world's biggest endurance-racing stage.
Although the #44 entry was ultimately unable to reach the finish, its appearance remains a memorable chapter in the F40's competition history. By 1996, the F40 GTE was already regarded as one of the last great analog supercar racers—a machine that combined Ferrari's twin-turbocharged V8 power with the raw character and visual drama that made the F40 a legend both on the road and on the track.
Today, the Le Mans F40 GTE stands as one of the most sought-after subjects among Ferrari and endurance-racing collectors, representing a remarkable era when production-based GT cars fought for glory at the Circuit de la Sarthe.
