  Facebook user Yuriy Samoylyk reminded about the Team Ukraine Racing with Ferrari team, which was created in 2012 with the support of the Automobile Federation of Ukraine to develop and promote national motorsport. In the 2012 and 2013 seasons, this team took part in several stages of the Ferrari Challenge Europe series of car races. Thanks to a successful debut in the overall group standings of the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli, in which Ferrari Team Ukraine took an honorable 4th place in 2012, the Ukrainian team was awarded the opportunity to use the official logo of Scuderia Ferrari.
