    The opening venue for the Ferrari Challenge and the Tudor Championship coincided this year at Daytona. From that point forward, the two series diverge to their respective tracks, not to meet again in 2015. Fox aired coverage of the Tudor Championship but none (that I could find) of the Ferrari Challenge. Does anybody know why not? Perhaps a forty-five minute race on two days does not have enough “viewer momentum” to interest commercial advertisers?

    Later this year the Ferrari Challenge will be at Circuit of the Americas; however, that event is not yet on COTA’s website. Perhaps it is too soon to post ticket information, but does anybody know if this race will be televised? I have been to several main event races, which have a "lights" version race earlier in the weekend schedule. As for a Ferrari Challenge that is not part of a "top billing" event, are there other series (Lamborghini Squadra Corse, Porsche Cup, Pirelli Challenge etc.) running in conjunction on race weekends, even if nothing is televised?

    Ferrari Challenge at COTA May 13-15, 2016 will not be televised. This is a stand alone race, and access will be fully granted to the paddock for all patrons. It should be a great event. Please visit events.ferrariusa.com to get more information, or to purchase hospitality tickets.

    Thank you.

    ... who purchase a hospitality pass from Ferrari. It also includes dedicated parking for Ferrari owners (near the paddock, not out in the general parking area), food and lap drives.

    COTA might charge a "general admission fee" which allows you to roam the track and sit in the grandstands, but that's all you get for free.

    Attached is the preliminary schedule of events.
