Sbirrazzuoli, meanwhile, competed in a handful of GT3 races last year and last competed full-time in the 2019 Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America Championship. Finally, former Ferrari Challenge Europe driver Delacour will move to GT3 racing full-time after his exploratory outings with Sbirrazzuoli in 2021.
This season, the #21 2020 Ferrari 488 GT3 Evo will race under the banner of Team DLC One AF Corse.AF Corse has signed two Ferraris for the full GTWC Europe season, covering both Endurance and Sprint Cups.
