For the fourth consecutive year, some of the most fascinating and iconic tracks in the Land of the Rising Sun will host the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli Japan 2026 races. The season calendar, presented at Okayama during the last round of the current year, includes five race weekends, preceded in March by a pre-season test at Suzuka on 8 March. 

Drivers and teams competing with the Ferrari 296 Challenge in the Japanese regional series, launched by the Prancing Horse in 2023, will gather at Suzuka between 27 and 29 March for the first round of 2026, which will see the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli Japan held alongside the Formula 1 Japanese Grand Prix.

The second event will be held in Okayama between 24 and 26 April, followed a month later by the third round, scheduled for Motegi from 22 to 24 May. As per tradition, a leg at the Fuji International Speedway, one of Japan’s most famous and historic tracks, is a must, scheduled for 26–28 June. Finally, the last event will again be held in Suzuka on 24–26 July.
