History: the Ferrari 296 GT3 No. 50 in the Macau GP
The Macau Grand Prix is one of the most iconic events on the international motorsport calendar. Held at the Guia Circuit, a semi-permanent layout that winds between the buildings of the former Portuguese colony, it combines ultra-fast sections with highly demanding technical areas for cars and drivers. The run through the Lisboa hairpin, the mountain sector, or the straight at the port are unmistakable for any motorsport enthusiast.
The Ferrari 296 GT3 with the number 50 reproduced by this model was driven by Ye Yifei, the talented Chinese driver trained in Ferrari's junior categories and with a solid career in the international endurance championship. Ye Yifei tackled the walls of the Guia Circuit with the agility and balance that characterise the 296 GT3, a car designed to perform on the most technical circuits and which found one of its most demanding stages in Macau.
