Renault driver and grand prix winner Giancarlo Fisichella has launched the Fisichella Motor Sport Academy, which is located at the Vallelunga circuit near Rome.
With his manager Enrico Zanarini, the 34-year-old already owns a GP2 team, but the new academy is believed to be the first school in the world that is dedicated totally to racing.
As part of the new Fisichella Motor Sport Technopole building and complex, the academy has been created “to satisfy the many requests from individuals who seek a career in the world of motor sport,” a statement explained.
Courses will help students earn diplomas to become mechanics, telemetrists, race engineers, aerodynamicists, technical directors, team and driver managers, trainers and press officers.
