Ferrari Challenge North America
The Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli is one of the most popular one-make series, in part because it brings together complete track novices and those who already have competition experience. Established in 1994 and now in its eighteenth year, this year the Ferrari Challenge sees the new 458 Challenge car line up alongside the F430 Challenge. Apart from the usual three series - Italy, Europe and North America - this year there will be a fourth one, for competitors from the Asia-Pacific region.
The large hospitality area offers all the right facilities and it provides a nerve center where drivers and the teams can welcome their guests and sponsors in an environment that lives up to their expectations. The facilities are also available to the sponsors of the Challenge, some attracted by the series itself and others who prefer to have a tie-in with specific drivers. They are keen to be associated with a prestige marque and also enjoy the media coverage on TV, radio, print media and Internet. In the Challenge, everything is done to put drivers at their ease, with rules ensuring that Dealers are the only ones authorized to enter cars. This rule has been in place since the very beginning of the Trofeo and allows for greater transparency in the running of the series, which would not be possible with entries from outside the organization. Events are always held at prestigious race circuits as part of a special event also run by Ferrari - Ferrari Racing Days – and often in conjunction with non-competitive activities managed by the Corse Clienti Department from Maranello, as FXX, 599XX programs and F1 Clienti.
