Sant’Agata Bolognese/Le Castellet, 13 April 2025 – The 2025 Super Trofeo season has started off with a bang as young drivers Matteo Pedrini and Giovanni Fraboni made history by becoming the youngest crew to ever win the Pro category. The duo, both 21 years old, drove a flawless race at the famous Paul Ricard circuit in Le Castellet, France to achieve this unprecedented feat.
The Super Trofeo series, organized by Lamborghini Squadra Corse, has been a breeding ground for young racing talent since its inception in 2009. Over the years, it has become a highly competitive platform for aspiring racers to showcase their skills and potentially make a leap into higher racing categories. And Pedrini and Fraboni have done just that by etching their names in the history books.
The weekend started off on a high note for the Italian duo as they dominated the free practice session, setting the fastest time in their class. This was followed by a solid qualifying session where they secured a spot on the front row of the grid. The stage was set for an exciting race and the young drivers did not disappoint.
As the lights went out, Pedrini and Fraboni got off to a flying start, quickly taking the lead in their Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo. However, the race was far from easy as they faced stiff competition from more experienced drivers. But the young guns remained calm and composed, driving with precision and determination.
Despite intense pressure from their rivals, Pedrini and Fraboni maintained their lead throughout the race and crossed the finish line with a comfortable margin of victory. The crowd erupted in cheers as they became the youngest pair to win the Pro category in the history of Super Trofeo. It was a momentous occasion for the two young drivers and their team, and a testament to their hard work and talent.
After the race, a jubilant Pedrini said, “It’s an incredible feeling to achieve this win and make history. We knew we had the pace and we just had to stay focused and execute our plan. Giovanni and I have been working towards this moment for a long time and I’m grateful to our team for giving us the best car on track. We couldn’t have done it without them.”
His teammate Fraboni added, “I’m still trying to process this moment. It’s a dream come true and I couldn’t have asked for a better teammate. Matteo and I have a great understanding on and off the track and I think that showed in our performance today. We hope to build on this success and continue to make our mark in the racing world.”
The victory of Pedrini and Fraboni is a great start to their professional racing careers and a testament to the support and guidance provided by Lamborghini Squadra Corse. The Super Trofeo series continues to be a platform for young drivers to showcase their talent and compete against the best in the world. With such promising young talents like Pedrini and Fraboni emerging, the future of motorsports looks brighter than ever.
The win also reflects the commitment of Lamborghini to nurture and promote young racers and help them reach their full potential. Their Super Trofeo program has produced many successful drivers who have gone on to compete in prestigious events such as the FIA GT World Cup, Blancpain GT Series, and the renowned 24 Hours of Le Mans.
The 2025 Super Trofeo season has only just begun and if this race is anything to go by, we can expect more thrilling and historic moments as the competition heats up.
