Spectators at the next June 10, 11 &12, 2011 Canadian Grand Prix will once again witness two exciting and highly contested race events featuring cars from the North American Ferrari Challenge Series.

Entering its 19th season of competition, the series will compete for the 13th time on Circuit Gilles Villeneuve with their powerful and spectacular Ferrari 430s whose owner/drivers' only professional status is their daily occupation.

For the first time in Canada, the Ferrari 430 will share the track with the new thoroughbred Ferrari 458 Challenge.

The Ferrari Challenge Series features the 50- horsepower, 4.3-liter V8 engine F430 and F458 models specially prepared for road racing competition. The drivers are non-professional racers who own or rent their cars, while the service teams of authorized North American Ferrari dealers handle all race preparation.

Those wishing to buy grandstand and general admission tickets can contact the Canadian Grand Prix box office seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. at 514 350-0000, or order online anytime at www.circuitgillesvilleneuve.ca.
