For more than 30 years, the Ferrari Challenge has been one of the world’s premier single-make motorsport series. It debuted in Europe in 1993, followed in North America the next year, and has since added regional series in the United Kingdom, Japan, and Australasia. Since 2013, all of the Ferrari Challenge series have come together for a global final, the Finali Mondiali, which regularly runs at the Ferrari-owned Mugello circuit.
In 2024, the Ferrari 296 took over as the official car of the Ferrari Challenge after eight years of service for the 488 and 488 EVO. The 296 is the ninth car in series history, but the first to feature a 120-degree V6; it features a twin-turbo three-liter engine, the most powerful in series history, just like its GT3 counterpart. The 296 Challenge also features cutting-edge aerodynamics that produce the most downforce in series history and specially developed Pirelli tires.
