Modena, 2 December 2024 – Maserati is delighted to announce that it has entered into partnership with Sparco, as part of Maserati Corse.

Fans of the Trident brand expect top performance, innovative technology, top quality and exclusive design during every experience between the kerbs: the collaboration with Sparco, a world leader in the field of technical clothing and motorsport equipment, stems from the shared vision of the principles that define the excellence of both brands. The partnership elevates Maserati’s signature innovation and elegance both on the road and on the track, offering enthusiasts uncompromising technical equipment.

The principle of complete customisation of the car is combined with the option of personalising the Sparco kit, creating a synergy between the technical equipment and the car. The lines proposed represent the perfect fusion between the utmost performance and a distinctive style, courtesy of the great attention paid to every detail – from logos to colours – designed to exclusively reflect the identity and design of the House of the Trident.

To seal their collaboration, the two brands, synonymous with Italian excellence around the world, present two special racing kits: the “Maserati Corse Replica” line of technical racing clothing and the "MCXtrema" Racing Kit, both consisting of suits, shoes, helmets, gloves and other clothing accessories, as the best way to feel like a real racing driver in the track models with the highest performance.

The products making up the “Maserati Corse Replica Racing Kit” and “Maserati Corse MCXtrema Racing Kit” lines were presented exclusively over the weekend of Saturday 30 November and Sunday 1 December 2024, at the Modena racetrack where the celebrations of the brand’s 110^th anniversary took place as part of the Trident Experience event.

Maria Conti, Head of Maserati Corse: “Maserati has a glorious history in the world of motorsport and we are happy to associate our name with a partner synonymous with excellence and high-level technology in technical racing clothing. It’s always exciting to start new projects with companies that share with us the same passion for the track, Maserati's natural environment for 110 years. Thanks to this collaboration, the brand's fans will have the opportunity to immerse themselves even deeper in the world of racing, in an exclusive, personalised way”.

Niccolò Bellazzini, Brand Manager at Sparco: “Maserati has a long and glorious history in racing and Sparco has been a benchmark in the field of technical equipment for drivers and racing cars for over 47 years. Collaborating with another exponent of Italian excellence – an icon of sportiness, style and glamour – is a source of great satisfaction and serves as an opportunity to add value in the service of motorsport”.
