Become a F4 Driver

<strong>The project in 2 words:</strong></p>
<p>Having lived all my childhood next to a racing track, I always dreamed to become a racing driver. After a year racing on the best simulator available on the market, I started to acquire a lot of theoretical knowledge. My goal is to make my first step into the real racing world and be in the running for the French F4 Championship for 2022.</p>

<p>My name is Gianluca Minoprio. I'm a student in IT engineering and I'm also passionate of motorsports. I always dreamed of becoming one day a driver. My passion for this sport gives me a competitive spirit, sports discipline and a lot of ambition. I started this project over a year ago I strongly believe I can succeed in this discipline.</p>
<h3><strong>What's F4?</strong></h3>
<p>Formula 4 is a category of single seater racing cars. I plan to start in Formula 4 because these cars are accessible to beginners (Obviously, they are less powerful and slower than Formula 1 cars).</p>

<h3><strong>How am I going to carry out this project?</strong></h3>
<p>I divided this project into several parts to take as little risk as possible for my studies and to use my budget effectively.</p>
<p>I started with what is most accessible: <strong>Sport</strong>. In motorsport, weight is a very important factor because each extra pound slows down the car. In addition, these cars are powerful so rigorous muscle preparation is required. So I set myself the goal of losing 10 kilos (22 pounds) for June in order to reach the weight of F4 pilots. This first goal was very important because I could test my commitment to achieve this project. Today, I have already reached this weight goal. I'm keeping on the dynamic of preparing myself musculatively and mentally, thanks to my perseverance and the help of a sports coach.</p>

<p>I'm convinced of my involvement in this project. A proof of my commitment is my daily training routine. Now I want to step up to the next level and do my first Test Drive in F4. Therefore I booked a driving test for April 13 to assess my ability on a real track with professionals in the discipline to advise me. In the perspective that these professionals give me a favourable opinion and consider that I have the potential and the skills to succeed, I will plan the next steps of the project to prepare my entry into the F4 championship.<br />

<p>The money collected on the first campaign will finance my first attempt in F4. I will carry out this experience with <strong>the Extreme Limite Team </strong>on the Fay de Bretagne track, in France. The price of the trial is 2880 €. Taking into account the 8% commission taken by KissKissBankBank, I will need to collect a total amount 3200 €.</p>
