Another exhilarating racing event has been added to the 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix schedule. The prestigious Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli is set to return as a support series for the event taking place between November 21-23, promising fans an unforgettable motorsport experience.

Since its inception in 1993, the Ferrari Challenge has been a beacon for single-marque racing, bringing together dream cars and passionate drivers on some of the world’s most iconic circuits. The series has expanded globally, now featuring continental series in Europe and North America, with the addition of a UK series in 2019 and a Japanese series in 2023.

By being added to the Las Vegas Grand Prix weekend, the Ferrari Challenge will allow ticketed fans to witness not one, but two high-octane racing series racing on the legendary Las Vegas Strip.

Statement from Silvia Bellot

"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."

Statement from Antonello Coletta

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."
