I'm used to them sitting much lower in the car."<ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
For 2012, Beretta made the move from Corvette<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> to Ferrari and started the season at the 2012 24 Hours of Daytona with Risi Competizione's Ferrari F458 Italia Grand Am.
