GT and endurance racer Cedric Sbirrazzuoli passed away on Thursday 20 August, his 39th birthday. The Monegasque driver died following a cancer diagnosis, and leaves behind his wife Martina, whom he married last June.

Born in 1987, Sbirrazzuoli’s racing career began in the mid-2000s in single-seaters, before moving on to closed-wheel racing, competing in GT4, GT2 and the Porsche Carrera Cup.

He subsequently competed in other one-make series such as the Maserati Trophy and the Lamborghini Super Trofeo, but it was his association with AF Corse that opened the doors to the world of Ferrari for him, earning him seats in the 458 Italia GT3, the 488 and, more recently, the 296.

His motorsport career saw him compete in the European and Asian LMS, the GT World Challenge Europe and America, the Italian GT Championship and, more recently, in IMSA, where in 2024 he contested the Endurance Cup in Conquest Racing’s #34 Ferrari alongside regular drivers Albert Costa and Manny Franco, securing podium finishes at Daytona and Watkins Glen before winning the Petit Le Mans.
