The Italian Sport Prototype Championship (CISP) is not just a race; it's a legacy that has been thrilling audiences for over 35 years. In 2020, the CISP is set to continue its tradition of high-speed, adrenaline-fueled competition with the Wolf GB08 Thunder, a race car that embodies performance, safety, and prestige. This blog will guide you through the concept of CISP, the reasons for choosing it, details about the Wolf GB08 Thunder, and the calendar for the 2020 season.

The CISP Concept:
The CISP is a 6-event championship featuring 12 races, with two 30-minute free practice sessions and one qualification round. It offers an Absolute Ranking, as well as Under and Master categories. The overall winner will receive €100,000 to participate in the Speed Euroseries 2021 with the Wolf GB08 Tornado. The CISP has been a platform for intense competition, with 6 drivers vying for the title in the last race of the first season and 18 different winners across 24 races.

Why Choose CISP:
The CISP is more than just a race; it's an opportunity for young and emerging drivers to showcase their skills alongside experienced gentlemen drivers. The Wolf GB08 Thunder, a car that adheres to the highest safety standards, provides a formative and fast racing experience. The championship offers a €100,000 prize pool to support careers in the World of Sports Prototypes. Additionally, drivers can race with their own car, assisted by a professional team, or opt for an arrive & drive service, both at a fraction of the cost of similar performance cars.

The Wolf GB08 Thunder:
The Wolf GB08 Thunder is the only car admitted to the CISP from 2018 to 2022. It is a FIA Formula 1 2005 approved Sport car, weighing 382 kg and boasting over 201 HP. The Aprilia RSV4 engine, supplied by Piaggio, is sealed to ensure fair performance throughout the championship. The car's exceptional weight/power ratio and ease of driving make it faster than a Formula 4 and nearly 2 seconds per lap quicker than a GT3.

Calendar 2020:
The 2020 season kicks off with Rookie Sessions at the Tazio Nuvolari Circuit on January 28, February 5, and 18. Official Tests are scheduled for Imola on March 28 and 29, and at Misano, Mugello, and Vallelunga on the Thursday before the races.
