The Fiorano Circuit witnessed a record-breaking moment as the Ferrari SF90 XX Stradale clinched the title for the fastest-ever lap by a road car, completing a lap of the circuit in 1:17.309. While Fiorano lap times might not enjoy the same widespread recognition as those at the Nürburgring, it holds a unique status as a track exclusively reserved for Ferrari models.
