Passione Ferrari Middle East Season 2024-2025 Yas Marina Circuit

Passione Ferrari Middle East 2024-2025 began with an unforgettable weekend at the Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi on October 26-27, 2024. Ferraristi from across the region gathered for a celebration of shared passion, filled with thrilling on-track experiences and exclusive Ferrari Moments. 

The heart of the event was undoubtedly the action on the track. Ferrari owners got the chance to drive their cars on the iconic Yas Marina Circuit. Ferraristi were also able to test drive the Ferrari 296 GTB and 296 GTS giving them an exhilarating experience on the track. 

Ferraristi joined in on parades from each showroom in Dubai and Abu Dhabi and took to the iconic Yas Marina Circuit in a parade of more than 150 cars. A truly special highlight of the weekend. 

On the road, test drives of the Ferrari 296 GTB and 296 GTS, Ferrari Roma Spider and Ferrari Purosangue also gave future Ferraristi the chance to experience the Ferrari performance firsthand.

Ferraristi were immersed in the spirit of Ferrari, enjoying social gatherings, world-class hospitality, and various bespoke experiences like the car simulator giving the chance to experience driving down the iconic Yas Marina Circuit. 

Every detail was designed to complement the on-track excitement as the weekend celebrated camaraderie and the shared love for Ferrari, creating Ferrari moments that will last a lifetime.

Club challenge members took to the track with their Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo, with one driver having the honour of piloting the Ferrari 296 Challenge for the first time. As engines roared and tyres gripped the track, drivers challenged themselves to push the limits of performance, perfecting their lap times and mastering the circuit's twists and turns. Whilst learning from their instructors, gaining tips and advice on how to master and improve their time on the track. 

Round 1 set the stage for an exhilarating season filled with thrilling on-track experiences and exclusive Ferrari moments.

The Ferrari 296 Challenge made its mark at Yas Marina Circuit during Round 1 of Passione Ferrari Club Challenge Middle East, stunning Ferraristi with its performance. 

Derived from the Ferrari 296 GTB, this car is built around the driver. It is the very first car in the single-make series to sport a V6 engine with the hybrid powertrain removed to reduce weight while the power output was increased to 700 cv, resulting in a record specific power output for the segment – 234 cv/l. 

The Ferrari 296 Challenge took on the circuit with precision and speed, offering Ferraristi a glimpse of the next level of Ferrari engineering. Whether mastering corners or hitting high speeds, it truly redefines the art of racing.

As Passione Ferrari Middle East season 2024-2025 continues, the excitement builds as we prepare for Round 2 in Kuwait Motor Town on November 15-16, 2024, for more Ferrari moments and unforgettable experiences. Stay tuned for updates, and join us as we continue to celebrate the spirit of Ferrari in the Middle East.
