Between 1989 and 1990, Team Michelotto embarked on an extraordinary adventure: bringing the F40 to compete on the grueling IMSA circuits in North America with the support of Ferrari France.
What might have seemed like just a sporting challenge turned into a unique human experience, made of passion, sacrifices, friendships, and nights spent between workshops and airports. This is a story that few people know. It tells of the courageous adventure carried out by a team that was half Italian and half French. In his introduction, author Francesco Calzavara highlights: “This book tells of an American adventure lived by a group of guys with the F40 Competizione. It offers an overview not only of the events on the track, but also of the context in which they took place, the difficulties encountered, the unexpected events managed, and the satisfactions achieved, highlighting above all the team spirit, collaboration, and shared passion that guided every action in the pits.”
