An Immersive Driving Experience
The highlight of the day was the hands-on session in one of two state-of-the-art racing simulators. Guided by expert coaches, attendees had the opportunity to refine their skills and experience the precision and performance that define Ferrari’s legendary driving dynamics. The immersive technology allowed participants to push their limits in a virtual track environment, offering an exhilarating taste of the Corso Pilota experience. The simulated track for the event was Laguna Seca, one of the many legendary circuits where the official Corso Pilota program will visit. Laguna Seca will host four Corso Pilota sessions in September 2025, including: September 15-16 Sport, September 17-18 Sport, September 19-20 Evoluzione+, and September 21-22 Race. While participants drove a Ferrari 296 GT3 on the simulator, the actual program features the Ferrari 296 GTB road car in the Sport course and 296 Challenge car in subsequent courses.
Savoring the Experience
As with the Corso Pilota program, the preview event was as much about the Ferrari lifestyle as it was about performance. Guests were greeted with the rich aroma of freshly brewed espresso and artisanal pastries, courtesy of our onsite barista. Throughout the afternoon, they enjoyed a selection of beverages and gourmet lite bites, creating the perfect setting for mingling and sharing their passion for Ferrari. Between simulator sessions, attendees explored the showroom, admiring the stunning Ferrari lineup and engaging with fellow enthusiasts.
