Lusail international circuit reveals trophy for Formula 1 Qatar airways Qatar grand prix 2023

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Lusail International Circuit partnered with Pininfarina, an Italian #design and architectural firm renowned for its iconic works in the automobile industry, to create the official trophy for #qatar Grand Prix. The trophy for the #formula1qatarairwaysqatargrandprix2023 is a fusion of speed, culture, and craftsmanship.

Pininfarina took inspiration from the dynamism of FORMULA 1, crafting a trophy that captures the heart of the recently remodeled #lusailinternationalcircuit (LIC). The development and production process of the trophy was executed through a three-month collaborative effort between #pininfarina and LIC.

The project enlisted the help of artisans with first-hand experience in hand-crafting expertly crafted wave-like patterns that pay homage to Qatar’s sand dunes with a deep-purple resin plaque with a geometric style representing the traditional Sadu carpet, adding depth and a vibrant touch. The satin aluminum finish enhances the trophy's elegance, mirroring Pininfarina's signature style. The combination of such elements celebrate Qatari culture and Lusail's identity as a motorsports hub.

Pininfarina, through #pininfarina Segno, its atelier dedicated to bespoke #design creations - utilized state-of-the-art technologies like laser printing to reflect elements unique to #qatar while maintaining a contemporary #design. The trophy weighs approximately 3.6 kgs with a height of 55 cm. While the new trophy maintains certain elements from the one featured in #qatar GP 2021, it offers a distinct and innovative perspective on Qatar’s growing culture of motorsports. The trophy is symbolic of the contrast between Qatar’s rich heritage and modernity.

"The trophy is a testament to Pininfarina's commitment to precision and craftsmanship. It embodies our shared values, representing the pinnacle of both #design and Qatar's deep-rooted passion for #racing." said Abdulrahman bin Abdullatif Al-Mannai, President of #qatar Motor and Motorcycle Federation and #lusailinternationalcircuit.
