Finali Mondiali at Mugello

The Mugello International Circuit hosts its eighteenth Finali Mondiali, a week-long celebration from 21 to 26 October. The event unites Ferrari fans with non-stop on-track action and initiatives honouring the Prancing Horse’s racing heritage and the season’s successes, closing the Corse Clienti year with style and spectacle for motorsport enthusiasts worldwide.

On Thursday, 23 and Friday, 24 October, the Tuscan circuit stages the decisive races of Ferrari Challenge Europe and Ferrari Challenge North America to crown this season’s champions. On Sun, 26 October, the Finali Mondiali races decide the world titles in the four classes of Maranello’s one-make series, a tradition that has run for more than three decades. The Scarperia track also welcomes sessions from Ferrari’s exclusive, non-competitive programmes, including F1 Clienti, Sport Prototipi Clienti, Club Competizioni GT and the XX Programme, which celebrates its twentieth anniversary this year. A total of 117 cars will run on the 5.245-kilometre circuit, with more than 40 additional models displayed in the museum area, featuring some of the most beautiful and iconic Ferraris in motorsport history.

As tradition dictates, the Mugello Circuit opens its stands to Ferrari employees and members of the Ferrari Club. All Tifosi and enthusiasts can enjoy complimentary access to the Prato grass areas from Thursday, October 23, to Sunday, October 26. Broad TV and streaming coverage bring the action home, with DAZN Italia showing selected sessions on its freely accessible channel, subject to registration, and official Ferrari platforms supporting global fans.

Ferrari Challenge Europe reaches Mugello with one title already settled. After a season built on consistency, Hendrik Viol (Scuderia Praha Racing) secured the Trofeo Pirelli Am crown in September at Spa-Francorchamps as battles in the other classes intensified. In Trofeo Pirelli, young Swiss racers Felix Hirsiger (Ineco Reparto Corse RAM) and Jasin Ferati (Emil Frey Racing) have traded blows all year; after the Belgian round, only eight points separate them, with Hirsiger ahead, and two 30-minute races in Tuscany promise a fierce finale. In Coppa Shell, Italy’s Manuela Gostner (Ineco Reparto Corse RAM) leads by 27 points over John Dhillon (Formula Racing) and by 29 over Oscar Ryndziewicz (Kessel Racing), both Spa winners aiming to reverse the order at Mugello. In Coppa Shell Am, Sven Schömer (Penske Hamburg Motorsport) saw his advantage cut to ten points after fellow German Jan Sandmann scored a double win in Belgium. With 34 points available, Andreas König (Emil Frey Racing) remains mathematically in contention, 32 points behind.

After Wednesday's qualifying, racing begins on Thursday, 23 October at 10:15 AM with Coppa Shell, followed at 12:05 PM by Trofeo Pirelli and Trofeo Pirelli Am, then at 4:45 PM by Coppa Shell Am. On Friday, 24 October, Coppa Shell Am Race-2 starts at 12:05 PM, Trofeo Pirelli and Trofeo Pirelli Am at 2:55 PM, and Coppa Shell closes the European schedule at 4:45 PM.

Ferrari Challenge North America keeps every title alive in Mugello. In Trofeo Pirelli, Massimo Perrina (Ferrari of Seattle), with seven wins, faces Dylan Medler (The Collection), who also contested the European series. At the same time, Roberto Perrina (Ferrari of Seattle) remains a factor. In Trofeo Pirelli Am, Brad Fauvre (Ferrari of San Francisco) looks to seal the championship by defending a 47-point lead over Sebastian Mascaro (Ferrari of Central Florida). In Coppa Shell, Mitchel Green (Ferrari of Westlake) and Yahn Bernier (Ferrari of Seattle) lead the fight, with Gary Ott (Ferrari of Philadelphia) still in the hunt. Coppa Shell Am is tighter still, with leader Gabe Hrib (Ferrari of Atlanta) three points clear of Michael Owens (Ferrari of Alberta) and Louis Flory (Ferrari of Houston) also in contention. Race-1 runs on Thursday, 23 October at 2:55 PM, with Race-2 on Friday, 24 October at 10:15 AM.

Once both championships conclude, attention turns to the Finali Mondiali races, which will decide the 2025 world champions. Saturday, 25 October, sets the qualifying grids. On Sunday, the Coppa Shell Am race starts at 9:00 AM, Coppa Shell at 10:10 AM, and Trofeo Pirelli with Trofeo Pirelli Am at 11:45 AM, delivering a packed morning for fans of Ferrari racing at Mugello.

The Ferrari Show follows the Finali Mondiali races, featuring 75 minutes of pure track entertainment from 12:45 PM, showcasing the cars and drivers who have starred in GT competition and Corse Clienti, with tributes to Ferrari’s past and future. The new 296 GT3 Evo, unveiled in June at the 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, makes its first appearance before an Italian crowd, joined by a homage to the Ferrari 499P, winner of the last three editions of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, reinforcing Ferrari’s endurance pedigree.

In keeping with Finali Mondiali tradition, the Tuscan stands remain reserved and free of charge for Prancing Horse employees and Ferrari Club members. All Tifosi can access the Prato grass area free of charge from Thursday, 2, to Sunday, 6, October, on the west side of the circuit, in the San Donato and Arrabbiata section, via the Palagio entrance, with parking available along Via dell’Autodromo for convenient arrival.

As with every round of the Ferrari Challenge season, extensive live and recorded coverage supports fans who cannot reach the Scarperia circuit.
