Ferrari won the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the third straight year Sunday, but a late surge from Porsche Penske Motorsport denied the Italian manufacturer a podium sweep.

Ferrari won the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the third year in a row on Sunday with Poland's Robert Kubica taking the chequered flag for the customer AF Corse team on a stirring afternoon at the Sarthe circuit.

On Sunday, the “third-string” Ferrari 499P became the third different chassis to win during Ferrari’s current streak at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the third different driving crew. Perhaps it was fitting that the winning No. 83 privateer, or “extra” entry from AF Corse, raced in Maranello’s factory colors of yellow, not Italian red.
