Also a look around the international paddock which included many cars like the Ferrari Enzo, Ferrari 458, Ferrari 488, Ferrari Roma, Ferrari Portofino and the Ferrari SF90 just to name a few amongst other great cars
Trofeo Pirelli Europe. A solitary race for Doriane Pin who, after taking the morning's pole position with a 2'01"393 marker, grabbed her second win of the weekend on British soil, as well as the fastest lap time, edging ever closer to the title in the process. With a winning manoeuvre right on the very last lap, John Wartique (FML - D2P) managed to get the better of a battle with Luka Nurmi (Formula Racing) to claim runner-up spot ahead of the Finnish driver.
In the Am class, Marco Pulcini, who started from pole, stayed out of the initial tussle that immediately knocked Nicolò Rosi (Kessel Racing) and Arno Dahlmeyer (Scuderia Niki - Iron Lynx) out of contention, clinching his first maiden season win, after effectively fending off overtaking attempts from Ange Barde (SF Côte d'Azur Cannes - IB Fast), who was penalised in the latter stages with a drive-through for repeatedly exceeding the track limits. On the second step of the podium was David Gostner (CDP - MP Racing) who produced an excellent race that saw him claw back nine grid positions. Angelo Fontana (Rossocorsa), making his Ferrari Challenge debut, took a surprise third place.
Coppa Shell Europe. It took just one lap for Franz Engstler to take the race lead, overtaking Axel Sartingen (Lueg Sportivo - Herter Racing) at the start and, with a skilful manoeuvre, the day’s pole-sitter Roman Ziemian (FML - D2P), before the Safety Car made an entrance to restore on-track order following a spin by Andrea König (Scuderia GT) at the rear.
At the restart, Engstler maintained a commanding lead, extending his advantage to achieve a fourth consecutive triumph and a fifth of the season, rounded off with a fastest lap of 2'04"438. The second half of the race, behind eventual second-place finisher Ziemian, witnessed a brilliant comeback staged by Manuela Gostner (CDP - MP Racing), who started from eleventh place on the grid after a less-than-exciting qualifying session. Reaching fifth position, Gostner managed to outclass first Fons Scheltema (Kessel Racing) with a spectacular overtaking move, and then Axel Sartingen, to whom she had to eventually surrender the third step of the podium after a five-second penalty imposed at the end for having exceeded the track limits during the overtake.
In the Am class, after his third place in Race 1, Martinus Richter seized the pole position, which he turned into a first win of the season after a consistent race. The battle behind him was a gripping one, with a face-off between Christian Herdt-Wipper (Saggio München) and Alexander Nussbaumer (Gohm Motorsport - Herter Racing), who eventually managed to come out on top. Narrowly missing out on the podium was Joakim Olander (Scuderia Autoropa), who nevertheless produced the fastest lap as well as climbing five places up the order
The final race of the 2022 Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli UK saw the new Trofeo Pirelli Champion Lucky Khera (Graypaul Birmingham) lead the pack from flag to flag; in Coppa Shell, rookie racer Jason Ambrose (Dick Lovett Swindon), took second place to win the Championship in his first ever year of racing.
Trofeo Pirelli. Even with the Championship title secured in Race 1, Khera kept the pace up in Qualifying 2, setting the fastest lap time of the day to take pole position for Race 2. Behind him, eyes were on H. Sikkens (H.R. Owen London) and Andrew Morrow (Charles Hurst), who came into the session on equal points and joint second place. Sikkens suffered technical challenges and qualifying in fifth place. Morrow was displaced to third position by returning driver John Dhillon (Graypaul Nottingham), who had qualified in second place.
Race 2 started as a clean affair, with all cars making it to the chequered flag, led from start to finish by series champion Khera. Dhillon stayed with the leader for the first half of the race but with 12 minutes of the race remaining, Morrow managed to take the inside line to slip through into second place, his position in both race and championship.
