MOTORE di ELITE

MOTORE di ELITE and DRIVEN: An Evening of Purpose, scheduled for Saturday, October 10, 2026, have been postponed due to Tropical Storm Isaias.

​

We share in the tremendous disappointment of everyone who was looking forward to this weekend. Our team, participants, partners, sponsors and supporters have invested months of planning and preparation into creating an extraordinary inaugural MOTORE di ELITE experience at Daytona International Speedway.

Postponing the event was an incredibly difficult decision and one we did not make lightly.

​

Tropical Storm Isaias in the Gulf of Mexico has created the potential for significant rainfall, severe weather, lightning and wind impacting the region. After careful consideration and discussions with Daytona International Speedway, we determined that proceeding under these conditions would not be the responsible decision for the safety of our guests, participants, partners and staff.

​

While MOTORE di ELITE was planned as a rain-or-shine event, that was never intended to mean proceeding through potentially unsafe severe tropical weather.

​

We also made a commitment to deliver an experience worthy of MOTORE di ELITE. Our guests were promised an extraordinary collection of Hypercars, Supercars, Collector Cars and Race Cars, along with the unique track atmosphere that makes this event special.

​

Under these conditions, many of these exceptional automobiles cannot be responsibly transported or displayed. Many represent extremely rare and valuable vehicles, and it is completely understandable that their owners would not risk transporting or exhibiting them in potentially severe weather.

​

Proceeding without a significant portion of the collection would mean delivering an experience that falls short of what we promised our guests.

​

For these reasons, MOTORE di ELITE has been postponed — not canceled.

​

MOTORE di ELITE

MOTORE di ELITE will return to Daytona International Speedway in October 2027.

​

We are diligently working to finalize the new event date and will announce it as soon as it is confirmed.

​

All 2026 General Admission and Car Corral tickets will remain valid and will automatically be honored for the rescheduled October 2027 event. No action is required to transfer your admission to the new date.

​

Refund Requests & Ticket Terms

We understand that postponing the event may create challenges for some guests, particularly those who have travel arrangements or who may be uncertain whether they will be able to attend the rescheduled date.

​

We sincerely appreciate those concerns and understand the disappointment and inconvenience this change may cause.

​

However, we respectfully remind all ticket holders that MOTORE di ELITE has been postponed, not canceled. In accordance with the MOTORE di ELITE Terms & Conditions agreed to at the time of purchase, all ticket sales are final and non-refundable. In the event of a postponement, purchased tickets transfer to and remain valid for the rescheduled event.

​

Accordingly, refunds will not be issued for MOTORE di ELITE General Admission or Car Corral tickets as a result of the postponement. Your existing ticket remains valid and will automatically be honored for the rescheduled event in October 2027.

​

We recognize that personal schedules and circumstances may change between now and the rescheduled event. We appreciate your understanding as we honor the ticket terms established at the time of purchase while ensuring every ticket holder retains admission to MOTORE di ELITE.

​

Sensible Weather Protection

During the online ticket purchase process, guests were also provided the option to purchase Sensible Weather’s Weather Guarantee as an additional form of weather protection.

​

Sensible Weather’s Weather Guarantee is an optional purchase that can proactively reimburse up to 100% of a guest’s daily rate when qualifying rain is forecast during their experience.

​

Guests who purchased the Weather Guarantee are notified directly by Sensible Weather via text message and email regarding any eligible reimbursement. If weather conditions change, Sensible Weather may also provide an updated notification.

​

No claim filing is required. Questions regarding eligibility, reimbursement or coverage should be directed to Sensible Weather through the contact information provided in their communications.

​

DRIVEN: An Evening of Purpose

DRIVEN: An Evening of Purpose has also been postponed, not canceled.

​

DRIVEN was intentionally created as the evening continuation of MOTORE di ELITE, and many guests planned to experience both events as part of the same day. With the daytime event being postponed, we determined that DRIVEN should not proceed separately this weekend.

​

Unlike MOTORE di ELITE, however, DRIVEN is not dependent on the track experience that makes the daytime event unique. Because of that, we are already working diligently with our partners to reschedule DRIVEN within the next couple of months rather than waiting until October 2027.

​

Additional information regarding the rescheduled DRIVEN date will be communicated as soon as details are finalized.

​

For guests who purchased General Admission or Car Corral ticket packages bundled with DRIVEN, the MOTORE di ELITE portion of your package will remain valid for the rescheduled October 2027 event. Additional information regarding the DRIVEN portion of your package will be provided once the new DRIVEN date is confirmed.

​

Thank You for Your Understanding

We understand the significant planning that our guests, participants, car clubs, sponsors and partners put into attending this weekend. Many of you made travel arrangements, prepared vehicles and rearranged schedules to be part of the inaugural MOTORE di ELITE, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment this postponement creates.

​

We are disappointed too. Our team has spent months building toward this weekend, and we wanted nothing more than to welcome everyone to Daytona International Speedway on October 10.

​

But our responsibility is not simply to hold an event. It is to deliver the experience we promised while protecting the safety of everyone involved.

​

MOTORE di ELITE is not canceled. It has been postponed, and we remain fully committed to bringing MOTORE di ELITE to Daytona International Speedway in October 2027.

​

We appreciate your patience, understanding and continued support. We look forward to welcoming you to the rescheduled MOTORE di ELITE and to sharing the new date for DRIVEN: An Evening of Purpose as soon as it is confirmed.
