It was a weekend to remember at Silverstone as
Charles Hurst Ferrari driver Gilbert Yates sealed the 2025 Ferrari Challenge UK
Trofeo Pirelli Championship with a flawless performance. Already dominant
throughout the season, Yates capped off his campaign with a ninth victory,
showcasing the speed, precision, and consistency that defined his journey to
the title.
The Silverstone finale delivered drama and
celebration in equal measure. Despite early race chaos and a red flag restart,
Yates remained unshaken, storming to victory and sharing the podium with his
son, Bradley Yates, who impressed with a debut podium finish. Calum Leathem
also delivered a series of strong drives over the weekend, underlining the
depth of talent within the Charles Hurst Ferrari stable and adding to the
team’s celebrations. With Ferrari ambassador Toni Vilander presenting the
trophies, the atmosphere was one of triumph and pride.
For Charles Hurst Ferrari, this championship
represents more than racing success—it highlights the team’s commitment to
excellence and their ability to nurture world-class talent. Yates’s historic
season adds to the dealership’s proud motorsport legacy, while Bradley’s debut
and Leathem’s consistent performances point towards a bright future. Together,
they’ve written a Silverstone story that will inspire both Ferrari fans and
future challengers.
