CORSO PILOTA FERRARI
Lifestyle & racing
Since 1993, Ferrari has been offering its clients a driving school with structured levels to perfectly match the experience and wide-ranging needs of the participants. The two cornerstones of Corso Pilota are its state-of-the-art learning technologies and its highly qualified instructors.
The aim of the school is to provide participants with the tools to appreciate the technical qualities of Ferrari models in their natural habitat: the track. The cars used on the courses are the following: 296 GTB, SF90 Stradale, used in all levels of the course, and the 488 Challenge Evo, used in the more advanced courses.
Many innovations have been added for the 2023 season: firstly, the teaching methods have undergone a thorough revision and have been enhanced by elements that can take full advantage of virtual reality technologies, making the course both more in-depth and engaging. Course participants will also benefit from a package of services designed for their health and well-being, as well as menus developed with the support of specialised nutritionists. Finally, they will have the incredible opportunity to road test the Purosangue, a unique car in which performance, driving thrills and usability coexist in total harmony.
For the first time in the history of the Corso Pilota, courses held on a European circuit have been introduced, in response to the educational and lifestyle requirements characterising this activity: Paul Ricard Circuit, located in Le Castellet (FR), a few kilometres from the French Riviera.
For more information, contact Customer Care at the following address: customercare.corsopilota@ferrari.com.
For clients wishing to maximise their potential, Ferrari has set up Corso Pilota Personal Coaching, a programme characterised by its one-to-one client-coach relationship.
All courses are made up of classroom-based sessions featuring state-of-the-art technological aids, hands-on activities on the track and time dedicated to subsequent video and telemetry data analysis. Furthermore, for each course, Ferrari staff have also organised engaging activities aimed at entertaining those accompanying the course participants: the experience should thus prove just as memorable for clients as for those not actively taking part in track activities.

WELCOME TO CORSO PILOTA CLASSICHE
The sensations and sounds experienced when driving a classic Ferrari generate driving thrills in their purest form. However, with few of the electronic controls or driver aids that we enjoy today, a classic Prancing Horse model requires a unique set of skills to master it.
Corso Pilota Classiche gives you a taste of the satisfaction and sheer driving pleasure that comes from piloting a thoroughbred Ferrari. You’ll hone your driving via extended sessions on our private Fiorano track in Maranello under the tutelage of professional Ferrari drivers.
For 2023 we offer a choice of three dates at Maranello – 19-20 May, 9-10 June, 6-7 October. These courses are open to all Ferrari owners – we have a selection of superbly maintained Ferrari 308 GTBs from the 1970s, a 3.2 Mondial from the 1980s, and a 550 Maranello from the 1990s, all available for you to drive. If you are a classic Ferrari owner, we encourage you to bring your car so you can develop techniques that are most relevant to that particular model.
You will discover more about the history behind our timeless masterpieces, and learn how they were designed and built. You’ll also gain access to our Ferrari Classiche workshop to meet the skilled engineers and craftspeople who faithfully maintain and restore cherished classics to original Ferrari standards.
The knowledge you gain will fuel your passion – opening up a world of classic car events like regularity rallies and time trials. It will also give you the confidence of feeling more at one with your Ferrari whatever its age, whether on the road or the track.
Over this two-day course you will gain invaluable knowledge of driving theory and classic car engineering, and then get the chance to put it all into practice with extended track time to get the adrenaline flowing.

Our superbly maintained Ferrari 308 GTBs, 3.2 Mondial and 550 Maranello will provide you with a unique opportunity to finesse your driving skills behind the wheel of classic sporting masterpieces.
FERRARI 308 GTB (1975)
FERRARI 3.2 MONDIAL (1980)
These renowned mid-engined models from the 1970s and early 1980s are perfect vehicles in which to learn how to become a skilled classic car driver capable of driving vehicles with no electronic assistance.
The cars’ naturally-aspirated V8 engines boast two overhead camshafts per bank of cylinders. The synchromesh 5-speed manual gearbox coupled with a limited-slip differential is perfect to help you master manual transmissions and dog-leg gearboxes.
The rack and pinion steering has no servo-assistance.
FERRARI 550 MARANELLO (1996)
The 550 Maranello was Ferrari’s answer to those who said a front-engined V12 car could not beat the performance of a mid/rear-engined sports car. The front-engine, rear-wheel drive transaxle layout offers ideal weight balance.
Its naturally-aspirated V12 engine features twin overhead camshafts and dry sump lubrication. The car’s power steering varies its degree of assistance with road speed, being greatest at parking speeds, and reducing as speed increases.
Thanks to our instructors and these extraordinary cars, Corso Pilota Classiche will help you develop the special skills required to drive a generation of classic Ferraris created before electronic dynamic controls changed the way we drive. You’ll also gain an insight into the world of classic Ferraris and an appreciation for the innovative engineering of the past.
