Renowned for its prestige and endurance, this single-make championship has been captivating audiences for over three decades. With more than 1,000 drivers competing on some of the most iconic tracks in the world, it’s no wonder that the Ferrari Challenge is the epitome of luxury racing.
A Glimpse Into the World of Ferrari Challenge
Imagine yourself behind the wheel of a Ferrari, racing against the best drivers in the world. That’s the dream that the Ferrari Challenge brings to life.

Broadcast to 90 countries worldwide, the Ferrari Challenge is not just a race – it’s a spectacle that captivates fans across the globe.
But what sets the Ferrari Challenge apart from other racing championships? One word: sustainability. The Ferrari Challenge is the first to achieve continent-wide ISO 20121 certification for its sustainable event management system. From the cars on the track to the events off it, sustainability is at the core of the Ferrari Challenge’s ethos.
The Evolution of the Ferrari Challenge
This year, the Ferrari Challenge introduces a new format – the Single Make series. This series will see Ferrari Challenge drivers from around the world compete at Circuit Ricardo Tormo for the honor of winning a gold, silver, or bronze medal for their home nation. The stakes are high, and the competition is fierce as drivers push their limits in the brand-new Ferrari 296 Challenge.
Unveiled at the 2023 Ferrari Finali Mondiali, the 296 Challenge is a game-changer in the world of racing. With a powerful six-cylinder engine, this car sets a new standard in performance and driving enjoyment. With over 234 hp per liter of specific power and a downforce of 870 kg at 250 km/h, the 296 Challenge is a force to be reckoned with.
But it’s not just about power – the 296 Challenge is equipped with sophisticated technical solutions like the S-Duct and Pirelli tires specially developed for this model. It’s a car that combines speed, precision, and style in a way that only Ferrari can.
The Thrill of Competition
More than 200 drivers will compete across the four Ferrari Challenge series this season. From North America to Europe, drivers are gearing up for the thrill of the race.
