Meverin and Eureka Competition participate in Ferrari Challenge Europe Trofeo Pirelli with Max Mugelli
The Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli Europe is gearing up for the final phase of the season with the upcoming round at the Hungaroring. From September 10 to 14, Max Mugelli will return to the Budapest track, buoyed by his second-place standing in the Trofeo Pirelli overall rankings and the two prestigious podium finishes he secured during the last round at Portimão.
Indeed, at the Portuguese circuit, Mugelli delivered one of his best weekends of the season, reaching the podium in both Pro category races with two third-place finishes that allowed him to consolidate his second-place position in the class standings.
On the technical and demanding Hungarian circuit, Max will aim to build on the results achieved before the summer break, with the goal of consolidating his second place in the standings.
Adding to the significance of the Budapest weekend is the approach of the Ferrari World Finals, scheduled for November 17–23 at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. This event in Catalonia will mark the highlight of the entire Ferrari Corse Clienti season, bringing together drivers, teams, and cars from Ferrari Challenge championships worldwide, alongside the prestigious XX Programme, F1 Clienti, Sport Prototipi Clienti, and Club Competizioni GT.
For Max Mugelli, the Hungarian challenge will therefore be much more than just a race: it will be a crucial step toward the season finale and that global event where every Ferrari driver dreams of playing a starring role.
As always, both races will be streamed live on the official Ferrari YouTube channel and the live.ferrari.com live.ferrari.com platform.

Max Mugelli
“We arrive in Budapest following a very positive weekend at Portimão—just before the summer break—where we managed to reach the podium in both races. It was a significant result that allowed us to consolidate second place in the overall standings and approach this final part of the season with great confidence. The Hungaroring is a technical, challenging circuit that I’ve always enjoyed, and if we can find the right feel for the car, I believe we can contend for top positions. We are at a decisive moment in the season, and every result could make the difference heading into the Ferrari World Finals in Barcelona.”
