The 2023 24 Hours of Le Mans marked Ferrari's first overall victory at the Sarthe since 1965, ending Toyota's five-year reign and closing a fifty-eight-year wait for the Prancing Horse. The result reignited a manufacturer rivalry stretching back to Ferrari's mid-century duels with Ford and Porsche, with the 499P's twin-turbo V6 hybrid debuting in the top class and winning at the first attempt, a feat unmatched in modern Hypercar competition.
