Ferrari: Hot ride through quiet Monaco 🎥

The short film celebrates the incipient return to normality in Monaco. "Le Grand Rendez-Vous", directed by Claude Lelouch, premiered on June 13, 2020. Filming took place in the early morning of May 24, 2020 - the day on which this year's Grand Prix de Monaco was due to take place.

With 1000 hp through the quiet Principality
Charles Leclerc, who grew up on the streets of Monaco, sat behind the wheel of an SF90 Stradale and reached a speed of more than 240 km/h. The first hybrid engine in the history of Ferrari in a production car delivers around 1000 hp of system power. Leclerc was first accompanied by Prince Albert II - and then by a mysterious lady...

Closed race track without infrastructure
The Principality was closed to traffic due to the filming. Due to the first easing of restrictions following the quarantine measures, this event was watched by many Monegasques. Leclerc completed several laps of the circuit, which was not set up specifically for racing this year.

The production was supported by 17 technicians who used various cameras to capture the performance of the Ferrari. A further six engineers and mechanics, who traveled especially from Maranello, completed the production team.

The filming took place in the early morning of May 24, when the Monaco Grand Prix was due to be held.

Memories of 1976
The short film is reminiscent of the first film "C'était un Rendez-Vous", which Claude Lelouch shot in Paris in 1976 and has been considered a cult film ever since. In addition to the passion for speed and the unmistakable sound of the Ferrari engine, the works have another thing in common: both feature women who are close to the French director.

In the first film, it was Gunilla Friden, his partner at the time. The mysterious young florist in the new short film is Rebecca Blanc-Lelouch, the director's granddaughter.
