Ferrari drivers to fly with VistaJet and XO
VistaJet and XO have pledged to take care of every detail of the flights for the drivers of Ferrari 488 GTE and 488 GT3 cars, who race in more than 20 countries all over the world. The operator is taking precautions.
The Ferrari drivers are used to experiencing fine engineering, and Vista Global looks to deliver this in the air too.

Vista Global, the private aviation group founded by Thomas Flohr, has announced it will open its private jet fleet to all the Ferrari drivers participating in international GT races and in the Prancing Horse mono-brand championships. The service will help Ferrari international drivers enjoy a safe and seamless flying experience with VistaJet and XO as they travel to compete in the races.

The Ferrari 488 GTE and 488 GT3 cars race in over 20 international championships all over the world, while the 488 Challenge Evos feature in the Ferrari Challenge series in Europe, North America and Asia. The races take place across five continents over a 12-month period and involve hundreds of participants from around the world, including the best professional and amateur drivers.

VistaJet and XO will take care of every detail of the flights to ensure passengers enjoy a tailored service. The group has taken additional steps to further strengthen its COVID-19 procedures on every flight.

Flohr says: “Racing has been a passion of mine for many years. Alongside my team, I have experienced first-hand the demands of racing and the intense focus required to consistently deliver a winning performance. Vista Global is excited to be able to support all Ferrari drivers to get where they need to be, safely and in optimum condition so they can focus on what is the most important; the competition and performance on track.”

In February last year, VistaJet partnered with Scuderia Ferrari Mission Winnow for the 2019 Formula One World Championship.
