The 2025 World Finals: A Grand Finale for the Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2
- 132 drivers and more than 80 Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2 cars descend on Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli for the 12th Lamborghini World Finals, scheduled for November 8 and 9.
- Eight class titles across the Asia, Europe, and North America championships remain undecided, making this one of the most consequential season finales in recent memory.
- A 10-race program packs the weekend, with the Super Trofeo returning to Misano for the first time in three years.
Three continental seasons, one circuit, and eight championships still hanging in the balance. That is the setup for this year’s Lamborghini World Finals at Misano, where the Asia, Europe, and North America Super Trofeo championships all converge for their final rounds before the combined World Finals grid takes shape on Saturday.
But the drama of unresolved titles only tells half the story. The deeper significance of this weekend is that it marks one of the last major competitive outings for the Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2 before Lamborghini transitions its one-make series to the Temerario platform. Every lap at Misano carries the weight of a closing chapter.
Lamborghini says the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli will host 10 races across the weekend, featuring a field of more than 80 Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2 cars. The one-make series returns to this Italian Adriatic coast venue after a three-year absence; Misano previously hosted the World Finals in 2021, so the paddock infrastructure and track knowledge are familiar territory for many returning teams. For squads that spent entire seasons racing at circuits like Sebring International Raceway, WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, and Watkins Glen International on the North American calendar (now in its 13th season), everything earned over those months comes down to this weekend.
The Road Ahead: Temerario Super Trofeo and Lamborghini’s Next Chapter in Motorsport
While the focus at Misano is firmly on crowning 2025 champions, the bigger story for Lamborghini’s customer racing future sits just beyond the horizon. According to reports from CarBuzz, the Huracán Super Trofeo is expected to be replaced by a new Temerario Super Trofeo race car in the 2027 season. That timeline makes the current World Finals one of the last major chapters for the V10 platform in Lamborghini’s one-make series.
Lamborghini confirmed the existence of the Temerario Super Trofeo program, and the car reportedly shares key components like its gearbox and braking system with the Temerario GT3. For teams currently running the Huracán EVO2, the transition will mean adapting to an entirely new powerband, different weight distribution, and fresh setup philosophies. That kind of platform change ripples through the entire paddock: mechanics retrain, drivers recalibrate, and the competitive pecking order resets.
The shift from a naturally aspirated platform to a forced-induction successor mirrors the broader change happening across the Lamborghini road car lineup, and it will be closely watched by competitors and customers alike. For anyone considering entering the Super Trofeo series, the practical calculus is straightforward. The EVO2 will likely remain eligible for certain racing categories and track days, but its competitive relevance in the official Super Trofeo championship is on a defined timeline. Prospective entrants should weigh whether to invest in the current platform for the remaining seasons or wait for the Temerario era to begin.
Super Trofeo’s Role in Lamborghini’s Engineering Philosophy
Understanding why this transition matters requires understanding where the Super Trofeo sits on Lamborghini’s competitive ladder. The series occupies a rung below the GT3 program in terms of outright performance and regulatory complexity, serving as an entry point for drivers and teams who want factory-supported, structured competition without the costs and logistics of multi-manufacturer endurance racing. The one-make format keeps budgets more predictable (though Lamborghini does not publicly disclose typical season costs), and the global championship structure across Asia, Europe, and North America gives participants a clear progression path.
The connection between track and showroom is real, even if it is sometimes overstated in marketing materials. Technologies validated in the Super Trofeo and GT3 programs, from aerodynamic solutions to cooling strategies, inform the engineering decisions on cars like the Huracán STO and its eventual successors. For Lamborghini enthusiasts, the World Finals are not just a racing event. They are a window into how Squadra Corse develops and proves the hardware that eventually shapes road-going performance models.
The EVO2 itself is the most track-focused expression of Lamborghini’s V10 platform in customer racing. For the gentleman drivers and semi-professional racers who form the backbone of the Super Trofeo grid, the car is a known quantity by now: teams understand its limits, its tire behavior, and its braking characteristics intimately after years of development. That depth of institutional knowledge across the paddock tends to produce tighter racing, which is exactly what the packed grids at previous rounds suggest. All of that accumulated expertise will need to be rebuilt from scratch when the Temerario arrives.
Competitive Landscape: Lamborghini Super Trofeo vs. Rivals
Lamborghini is not alone in running a one-make customer racing platform at this level. Ferrari runs its Challenge series and Porsche operates the Carrera Cup, and all three serve the same fundamental purpose: keeping brand loyalists engaged on track, developing driver talent, and creating a feeder system for higher-tier GT racing.
Where Lamborghini’s program stands apart, at least for the moment, is in the magnitude of its platform transition. Moving from a naturally aspirated V10 to a forced-induction successor is not a simple facelift; it redefines the character of the racing experience. Multiple enthusiast communities describe the Super Trofeo paddock as notably accessible compared to higher-tier motorsport events, with pit passes offering genuine proximity to cars and teams. Whether that paddock culture survives the generational shift intact will depend on how Squadra Corse manages the changeover. The accessibility and the close racing are what draw participants and spectators to the series in the first place.
Event Details and Championship Stakes
The 12th Lamborghini World Finals weekend begins with free practice and qualifying sessions for the three continental championships starting Wednesday, November 5. The regional final rounds run through Friday, November 7, before the combined World Finals grid takes the track on Saturday, November 8, and Sunday, November 9.
All races from the continental championships and the World Finals will be livestreamed on the official Lamborghini Squadra Corse YouTube channel, which is worth bookmarking if you cannot make the trip to Italy’s Adriatic coast.
