Ferrari Challenge confirmed as support series at 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix

Another racing championship has been added to the schedule at this year’s Las Vegas Grand Prix, with the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli confirmed as a support series when the event returns on November 21-23.

A renowned single-marque series, the Ferrari Challenge has brought dream cars and drivers together on the world’s most famous circuits since 1993, growing into a popular competition for those who, in addition to driving their Ferraris on the road, want to compete on the track.

The Ferrari Challenge is divided into two continental series, Europe and North America, with a further UK series added in 2019 and a Japanese series arriving in 2023.

Ferrari Challenge being added to the Las Vegas Grand Prix schedule alongside F1 means ticketed fans will see two racing series tackle the iconic Strip during the race weekend.

“The addition of the Ferrari Challenge series further demonstrates our commitment to delivering an even bigger and better racing event than ever before,” said Silvia Bellot, VP of Sporting and Race Operations at Las Vegas Grand Prix, Inc.

“Last year we made the dream of racing down Las Vegas Boulevard a reality, and we are thrilled that we can now offer fans twice the racing action for the price of a single ticket. Whether it be on or off-track, we are dedicated to providing fans with a truly unforgettable experience.”

Antonello Coletta, Global Head of Ferrari Endurance and Corse Clienti, added: “We are very proud and delighted to offer our Ferrari Challenge drivers the chance to compete on a circuit that has become instantly iconic, as part of the weekend that sees Formula 1 starring on the same track.

“The success of our one-make series is also based on offering customers the opportunity to compete on the best and most spectacular tracks in the world, and the setting provided by Las Vegas is undoubtedly unique in this respect.”

The Ferrari Challenge garages will be located in the heart of the F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix Fan Experience, offering fans a closer look at the 296 Challenge cars and a glimpse into the garages.
