Day Two – Race Training Day! This is what it’s all about! You will practice the fundamentals of race passes, rolling ‘side by side’ starts, risk management in race traffic and race strategy. The day begins with another classroom session and a debriefing from the first days on-track activities. The classroom then focuses on braking, passing, qualifying, and green flag starts. In addition to extensive driving sessions, track time will also be spent in exercises such as learning the different aspects of recognizing, setting up, and completing the pass as well as how to get up to the front from the start by practicing green flag starts from different positions.

The Cars
FERRARI 430 CHALLENGE
An intensive series of development tests held at Fiorano have honed the F430 Challenge’s talents. In fact, it offers a stunning series of features sure to meet with the approval of its drivers. As ever, the transfer of technology from Formula One is significant, particularly with regard to the braking system. It uses carbon-ceramic material (CCM) – a first for a Ferrari sports competition car.
Gearbox
The electronic gearbox is also Formula One-derived. It works in exactly the same way as the one used aboard the Grand Prix car. Thanks to a two-plate clutch and specific software, it also offers the same gear-changing times as the road-going F430 (150 ms) in the much more extreme track conditions.
Tyres
19-inch slick tires were also developed specifically by Pirelli for the F430 Challenge. They are designed to comply with the very strict racing regulations that demand endurance while still delivering blistering performance.
Weight
The F430 Challenge boasts a weight of just 1225 kg (excluding fuel). Weight has been reduced in every area of the car, from the engineering to the bodywork. Of particular note are the Lexan® windscreen, the all-carbon fibre intake plenum cover, and the specific exhaust system. To ensure that drivers get the full benefit of the car’s sporty prowess on the track, the E-Diff has been replaced by a mechanical differential and the EBD has been replaced with a mechanical system.
