Actor Michael Fassbender Races with Ferrari

Known across the globe for starring roles in films including “Alien: Covenant,” “Steve Jobs,” “Twelve Years a Slave” and  “Assassins’ Creed,” actor #michaelfassbender has stepped into the real-time role of racecar driver as he successfully completed the first round of the 2017 North American #ferrarichallenge #racing series.  A lifelong fan of #ferrari and Formula 1, Fassbender began his training with Ferrari’s “Corso Pilota” driving program last year.

“Ferrari is defined by #racing, and training with the #ferrari team gave me a great foundation to hone my skills behind the wheel of the #488challenge race car,” says Fassbender. “From a very early age I idolized #ferrari and its champion, Michael Schumacher, in particular, so now #racing in the #ferrarichallenge brings that dream full circle,” he continues.

A single-model championship series developed by #ferrari for clients who have a passion for #racing, the #ferrarichallenge Trofeo Pirelli has thrilled drivers and fans alike since its inception in 1992. The Challenge is run in three divisions– Europe, Asia, and North America – and is an ideal platform for drivers who have a passion for #racing. Fassbender will compete in the North American #ferrarichallenge series.
