Maserati and Sparco Bring Bespoke Racing Kits

Maserati Corse has announced a collaboration with Sparco, bringing fans of the iconic Trident brand closer to the heart of motorsport. The partnership introduces two bespoke racing kits—“Replica” and “MCXtrema”—designed to embody the pinnacle of performance, innovation, and craftsmanship. This initiative celebrates a shared passion for excellence and reaffirms Maserati and Sparco’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of racing technology.

The collaboration underscores the seamless fusion of vehicle personalisation with racing gear customisation. Enthusiasts can tailor their Sparco kits to complement their Maserati vehicles, ensuring a cohesive and elegant synergy. Every detail, from logos to colour schemes, is meticulously crafted to reflect Maserati’s design ethos and commitment to quality.

The collections were officially unveiled during the Trident Experience event, held on November 30 and December 1, 2024, at Maserati’s headquarters in Modena. The event, part of Maserati’s 110th-anniversary celebrations, served as the perfect platform to showcase these cutting-edge racing kits. The milestone marked a momentous year for Maserati, solidifying its legacy in motorsport while looking ahead to the future.

The Maserati Corse Replica line is designed to meet the rigorous safety and performance standards set by the FIA, making it suitable for competitive racing. The line includes a meticulously crafted racing suit available in both standard and Lady Competition fits, offering superior comfort and protection. Complementing the suit are the MC20 Formula shoes, which feature optimized perforations for enhanced breathability, and the Futura gloves, constructed with a three-dimensional mesh lining and sustainable materials developed through Sparco’s FULL-EFFICIENCY lifecycle initiative. Helmets in the collection, including the Air RF-5W Full-Face and Pro RJ-31 Air Open models, are crafted with carbon-kevlar-reinforced fibreglass for maximum safety. Additional accessories, such as type-approved underwear, balaclavas, and branded duffel bags, complete the kit, ensuring racers are fully equipped.

For owners of the Maserati MCXtrema, the brand’s most extreme track-focused car, the MCXtrema Racing Kit offers an elevated experience tailored specifically to their needs. This collection, which debuted at Monterey Car Week earlier in the year, features advanced materials and innovative designs to enhance performance on the track. Highlights include the Prime Top Suit and Super Light Suit, both engineered for peak safety and mobility and a selection of specialized footwear, such as the Laces and Strap shoes, which incorporate cutting-edge reinforcements for comfort and stability. FIA-compliant gloves with heat transfer optimization and advanced carbon fibre helmets further reflect the technical sophistication of the MCXtrema kit. Accessories, including type-approved underwear and the sleek MCXtrema Trolley Bags, round out the collection.

This partnership exemplifies the shared heritage and craftsmanship of two legendary Italian brands. Maserati, with 110 years of motorsport excellence, and Sparco, boasting nearly five decades of expertise in racing apparel and equipment, have united to deliver an unparalleled racing experience. The collaboration is not merely about performance; it is also a celebration of artistry and innovation, providing fans and drivers alike with gear that mirrors the elegance and spirit of Maserati’s vehicles.
