“It was a great moment to witness, seeing how the impressive performance of the Ferrari SF90 Stradale put down this lap record on July 15,” says Mark Raffauf, Senior Director of Race Operations at International Motor Sports Association (IMSA), which oversaw the test.
On July 15, a Ferrari SF90 Stradale Assetto Fiorano set a new record for fastest lap by a production car at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The lap was finished in just 1:29.625 seconds with a maximum speed of 174.6 mph. Being the Assetto Fiorano spec, the record-breaking SF90 features a list of upgrades like the Multimatic shock absorbers, weight reduction, and carbon fiber rear spoiler.

“The SF90 Stradale derives its name from 90 years of the Scuderia Ferrari, underscoring the vital importance of motor sports in the development of our road cars,” says Matteo Torre, President, Ferrari North America, “so running the SF90 Stradale here at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway during Ferrari Racing Days, where we also had the Ferrari Challenge, XX and F1 Clienti programmes on-track this weekend, was fitting indeed.”
