About This Event

Phillip Island opens the 2027 Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli Australasia season, and the opening round is the headline act of Ferrari Festival. The Grand Prix circuit runs along the edge of a cliff above the sea, with wide, fast corners and strong coastal winds.

1What to Expect

Every car is a Ferrari: The championship field races the Ferrari 296 Challenge, so the whole grid is one model from one maker.
Dealer teams for 2027: Every driver now races with a dealer aligned team, and Ferrari Richmond in Melbourne runs with Zagame Autosport.
Kiwis on the grid: New Zealand drivers have been part of the field since the series started in 2025.
First of five rounds: The season goes on to Bathurst, The Bend and Queensland Raceway before the September finale at Sydney Motorsport Park.
