A weekend to share
With engines growling and adrenaline through the roof, the 33rd Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli Europe opened the 2025 season on 27 March in the most spectacular way possible, choosing the Autodromo Nazionale di Monza as its kick-off venue. The legendary Temple of Speed provided the backdrop for a weekend of racing, passion, and pure competition.
The historic single-make series – one of the longest-running and most iconic in the GT arena – saw Ferrari tackle the legendary Brianza corners at top speed, keeping enthusiasts on the edge of their seats throughout the show. The absolute star of the paddock, the new Ferrari 296 Challenge – developed from the 296 GTB road version – set the track alight with a stunning display.
In the Trofeo Pirelli Am class, the action heated up right away between twenty contenders for the title, including well-known faces and new promises. The spotlight was on Marco Zanasi (Motor Service – Pinetti Motorsport), Hendrik Viol (Scuderia Praha Racing), champion of the 2023 UK series Andrew Morrow (Charles Hurst), and last Coppa Shell winner, Frenchman Henry Hassid (Kessel Racing).
At the first round of the Ferrari Challenge 2025, we welcomed customers and partners into our hospitality space, offering them an exclusive, immersive experience in the heart of this motor sport venue. Through video installations and interactive displays, guests were treated to a dynamic presentation of the Zanasi Group and the innovations presented by Carrozzeria Zanasi, Sim Maranello, SCP, TURN, Peluso Automotive, Motor Service, and Atelier Zanasi.
