The Asian series will visit the most important F1 race tracks in Shanghai, Sepang and Fuji (Japan) and, for the first time, the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo will race in Indonesia. In Europe, the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo will again race alongside the Blancpain Endurance Series.

The 2014 Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo World Final will be hosted in Sepang, Malaysia in November, and will be open to all drivers from each series worldwide competing for the ultimate title: the race weekend will include the sixth race of the European and Asian Series.

The increasing success of the series worldwide has led to a major involvement by partners. In addition to the title sponsor Blancpain other companies support the championship: Pirelli, Castrol and OMP have confirmed their technical support for all three series together with the technical sports apparel producer, X-Bionic, as a new 2014 partner.

For 2014 Lamborghini’s specialist department Squadra Corse confirms a comprehensive worldwide program starting with a new series of Esperienza events that offers enthusiasts and prospects a first test-drive and experience of the Lamborghini world. The Lamborghini Accademia provides driver training and the initial steps towards racing for Lamborghini customers.

The Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo series provides the perfect first race experience for young and gentleman drivers, with Lamborghini’s GT3 program for more experienced racers wanting to compete with the Lamborghini marque worldwide.

Starting this year Lamborghini is developing the Young Drivers Program that offers Lamborghini customer teams the potential to collect young, new drivers from the Formula series and Touring car series in order to prepare them, through the Super Trofeo series, to start a professional GT3 driver career. The best young drivers under 26 years of age from the three Super Trofeo Series, will be selected by Lamborghini to be involved in the Squadra Corse testing program.
