Great success in Mugello - Bence Válint kicked off the season with amazing results
Bence Válint kicked off the 2024 season of Ferrari Challenge Europe in Mugello, representing Hungary. The young driver of the Ferrari Budapest - Rossocorsa team had a good start of the year. However, due to a technical issue, he had to start the race from the end of the grid, but he managed to fight through the whole field and finish the race in 2nd.
Bence can count his career's most successful race weekend behind him, as he started the final race from 4th position and with tactical, calm driving, he finished the weekend on the top spot of the podium. This was the 19-year-old Hungarian driver's first Ferrari victory of the season, and beacuse of this result he is already at the top of the championship, leading with 29 points, and he managed to push professional drivers behind him, such as former Formula 1 driver Timo Glock.
The next race of the Ferrari Challenge Europe will be held in Hungary from May 30th to June 2nd, at the Balaton Park Circuit, where Bence can not wait to be back on this very special track. The race will be broadcasted live in the Hungarian television on Sport 2.
