Hincapie, 36, lives part-time in Greenville, S.C. He will compete May 16-23 in the Tour of California and the participate in the Tour de France for the 15th times, beginning July 3 in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
During a wide-ranging, exclusive interview, Hincapie was asked about his Ferrari.
The Weekly Driver: A lot of guys when they’re position to get a nice cars, think about a vintage Porsche, a Lamborghini and, of course, a Ferrari. How about you?
George Hincapie: (Laughing) It kind of just happened. But I hardly ever drive it. In fact, I probably won’t end up keeping it. I’ve been home for about two weeks and I’ve driven it like three times.
You know, when we’re training (and racing) hard, you don’t really drive. And it the winter, the weather is bad so I don’t like to take it out in the bad weather. But it’s a great car. I love it.
Q: What year is it again?
GH: 2006. I’ve just saw it and got it. I’ve always wanted one. My son’s name is Enzo . . so it was a car for me.
Q: In the time you’ve had the Ferrari, if you had to, can you guess how many miles you’ve put on it?
GH: Not many. Maybe 200. Maybe not that many. I’ve had it for I think nine months. I’ll keep it a little longer.
