For its 10th season, Lamborghini replaces the victory lap with a race car designed to behave more like a GT3 machine.
Inaugurated in 2009 with the Gallardo, Lamborghini's Super Trofeo has evolved from a regional showcase into a global customer-racing ladder now spanning three continental championships.
Lamborghini describes the Huracán Super Trofeo Evo as conceptually more similar to a GT3, with a rear dorsal fin designed to stabilize the car under yaw and reduce snap-oversteer at high-speed corner entries.
Lamborghini's version of the customer-racing ladder benefits from running the same V10 architecture across both the Super Trofeo car and the GT3 machine, reducing the learning curve for drivers moving up.
The European calendar pairs several rounds with GT World Challenge Europe weekends, giving Super Trofeo competitors direct exposure to the GT3 teams they aspire to join.
The Evo's GT3-adjacent philosophy is the clearest signal yet that Squadra Corse views the Super Trofeo not as a marketing exercise but as the foundation of its entire motorsport ladder against Ferrari and Porsche.
Suzuka and Spa stand out as circuits where the Evo's improved high-speed stability should be most apparent, given the long, fast corners that punish aerodynamic instability.
Since 2009, 755 drivers from 59 countries have competed across 279 races at 42 circuits, and the 2018 season will culminate at Vallelunga on November 17-18 for the World Final.
