A few weeks ago, the people of Monaco, including some F1 drivers, were suddenly woken up by the engine noise of a Ferrari at speed. No Grand Prix unfortunately, but the shooting for a short film by Ferrari, starring Charles Leclerc and the SF90 Stradale.

Monaco was even more of a ghost town than usual in recent months due to the lockdown caused by the COVID-19 coronavirus and Ferrari decided at some point to use these empty streets. The result is the video 'Le Grand Rendez-Vous'.

The video is inspired by the famous 'C'etait un rendezvous' by the French filmmaker Claude Lelouch. This short film from 1976 shows the onboard images of (supposedly) a Ferrari 275 GTB, tearing through the streets of Paris at dawn. A revolutionary and impressive image at the time.

In reality, Lelouch used his Mercedes to shoot the images, but that didn't stop Ferrari from doing it again. In addition to the beautiful images of the new SF90 Stradale, the video also gives a good view of the Grand Prix circuit if it isn't built for the race.
