The FITASC Compak Sporting Grand Prix of Estonia was held from June 20th to June 21st, 2015. Serving as the vital preliminary international tournament layout right before the World Championships on the same grounds, this elite grand prix took place at the high-performance Männiku Shooting Range in Harjumaa, Estonia.

Event Highlights & Visual Analysis

Based on the official event emblem artwork, the branding carries the distinct visual theme deployed for Estonia's major 2015 championship calendar:

  • Pixelated Graphic Motif: Features a stylized orange and yellow concentric target ring logo crafted in a blocky, retro pixel-art aesthetic. This acts as a digital homage to Estonia's tech-forward identity while mimicking a breaking clay target.

  • Typographic Architecture: Pairs a clean sans-serif typeface for "FITASC COMPAK SPORTING GRAND PRIX" with a heavy, digital block font for the main host nation text: "ESTONIA". The specific tournament dates, "20 - 21 June 2015", are cleanly integrated below in a matching bright orange color.
