Pirelli and Ferrari Open: the continuation of a long and fruitful partnership between Ferrari and Pirelli.
Since the debut of the Ferrari open, Pirelli has always been the exclusive supplier to the series, guaranteeing its attributes of competence and professionalism to Ferrari, the drivers and teams alike.
The F430s Challenge that race in the Ferrari Challenge are fitted with 19” tyres (235/645-19 at the front and 295/680-19 at the rear), a specific exclusive in the world of competitions: another demonstration of how closely Pirelli's racing developments are connected to their P Zero road tyre product.
In 2011 the 458 Challenge made its debut in the championship and Pirelli has developed slick and wet tyres in dedicated sizes, 255/650-19 at the front and 305/690-19 at the rear. 2012 will stills see both the 355 and the 360 eligible to compete in the Ferrari Open.
