Ferrari extends Niterra technical partnership, adds NTK oxygen sensors and Hypercar backing

Ferrari has renewed its long-running technical partnership with Niterra, adding NTK oxygen sensors to its Formula 1 team and making Niterra an official partner of its Hypercar squad.

Partnership began
1996
Agreement renewed
2026

What Happened

Ferrari has announced the renewal and expansion of its long-standing technical partnership with Niterra through a new multi-year agreement. The collaboration, which dates back to 1996, will now cover both Scuderia Ferrari HP and Ferrari's Hypercar program in the FIA World Endurance Championship. The announcement was made in Maranello on 9 September 2026.

What changes under the renewed agreement
  • Niterra continues its technical partnership with Scuderia Ferrari HP, with NGK supplying spark plugs.
  • NTK joins the collaboration for the first time, providing oxygen sensors.
  • The partnership expands to Ferrari Hypercar, with Niterra becoming an Official Partner of the team competing in the FIA World Endurance Championship.

The renewed partnership brings together two companies with a shared focus on innovation, technical excellence and performance. Formula 1 and endurance racing provide highly demanding environments in which components are required to perform reliably under extreme operating conditions. Motorsport therefore serves as an important proving ground for Niterra's technologies.

Previously from Ferrari N.V.

Why this matters

The multi-year agreement extends a collaboration that has supported Ferrari's racing engines since 1996, ensuring continued supply of NGK spark plugs and adding NTK oxygen sensors for the first time. Expanding Niterra's role to Ferrari's Hypercar team makes endurance racing another proving ground for its components under extreme conditions. Ferrari's race teams and fans benefit from the technological continuity and the partnership's emphasis on innovation and performance.
