Ferrari Challenge: Trofeo Pirelli

The Ferrari Challenge: Trofeo Pirelli initiates the player into a club where brand matters most. The focus is on a real racing championship with cars from Maranello, recreated along with the tracks on which it takes place. This is not just a set of supercars, but an attempt to convey the spirit of the factory series. The handling is strict: you have to take into account tire grip, drift in turns and the risk of spinning out on the exit. Assistance systems can be turned off, and then the car becomes demanding on every steering movement. But the feeling of control when the circle is successful is appropriate. In your career you need to go through stages, get into points and gradually climb the table, earning access to new races. There is also training where they explain the trajectory of cornering and braking. You can choose from different car models and customize the car for a specific track. It’s also worth noting that the car’s settings really work: changed suspension stiffness changes the car’s behavior on bumps, and gear ratios affect acceleration. Racing takes tire wear into account, so strategy makes sense. Trajectory tips help beginners, but they give worse lap times - and that's a fair trade-off. There is also a single practice mode on any track: it is useful for practicing a problematic turn without pressure from your opponents. There are no special fashions or entertainment here, but there is integrity: the game is entirely about driving a circle cleanly at the limit. For those who are close to the theme of the brand and who are not afraid to learn how to drive for real, the Ferrari Challenge: Trofeo Pirelli is much better suited than arcade races.
