Ferrari in Monaco: the Hypercar Upgrade Option

The Supercars Rally Monaco’s standard fleet is already exotic by any normal measure — this option exists for the specific guest who wants one level beyond that anyway.

What the upgrade actually is

For guests who want it, a day’s car on the route can be upgraded to either the Ferrari 296 GTB or the McLaren 750S Spider — both cars already covered in depth elsewhere, and both a genuine step up in intensity from the route’s already-exotic standard lineup. This isn’t a discount trim swap or a marketing add-on; it’s access to two of the specific cars that have won road tests elsewhere in this series, worked into a scheduled day of the Monaco route itself.

Why these two specifically

Both cars represent a different kind of “more” rather than simply a bigger horsepower number: the 296 GTB for a hybrid V6 platform that’s already won its own comparison on genuine all-round strength, and the 750S Spider for the open-top McLaren that already won at Col de Turini on outright lightness and precision. Guests choosing between the two are really choosing between two different kinds of intensity, not picking the “better” of the pair.

Arranging it

This is worth booking in advance rather than requesting on the day — securing the specific car for the specific day you want it takes coordination, and arranging it ahead of time means it’s simply part of your route when you arrive rather than something you’re hoping works out.

The hypercar upgrade is available on the Supercars Rally Monaco. Get in touch to add it to your route, or read the full spotlights on the 296 GTB and 750S Spider first.

Frequently asked questions

Is the hypercar upgrade included in the standard Supercars Rally Monaco price?

No — it's an optional upgrade for guests who specifically want an additional level of intensity on top of the route's already-exotic standard fleet.

What are the upgrade options?

The Ferrari 296 GTB or the McLaren 750S Spider, both already covered in full elsewhere on the journal — the upgrade path exists specifically for guests who've read about one of these two and want it as part of their actual route days.

Do I need to decide on the upgrade before the trip starts?

It's best arranged in advance so the specific car is available and prepped for the day you want it, rather than a same-day request.
