Probably a high-point for the model came at the 2008 24 Hours of Le Mans when the Risi Competizione car placed first in GT2. Risi and other teams such as AF Corse and CRS Racing are probably looking at the new 458 development with a keen eye.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
