Formula Racing Course near Milan: 18 laps in Ferrari and BMW

Learn racing lines and braking points, then drive them yourself on the circuit.

A Formula racing course near Milan puts you behind the wheel of a Ferrari 458 and a Formula 4 type BMW FB02 for 18 laps on a race track. After a theoretical session on racing fundamentals conducted by professional drivers, you take one orientation lap in an auxiliary car, then drive three laps in the Ferrari and 15 in the Formula 4, with debriefing between sessions. You'll learn braking points, turning points, clipping points, exit points and how to manage different curves.

The experience

The course starts with classroom instruction on racing behavior and technique, where to brake, how to accelerate, when to shift gear, and how to read the track itself. A professional driver sits with you for the first lap in a support vehicle to show you the circuit layout and racing line. That foundation matters: the theory session and the track walk give you the reference points you'll use when you're driving.

You then take the wheel for three laps in a Ferrari 458, moving through the gears and testing what you learned. The Formula 4 type BMW FB02 comes next for 15 laps, with a debriefing session between the two cars so you can adjust your approach. Fuel and car insurance are included. A professional instructor rides alongside you. Onboard video with telemetry data captures your performance so you can review it afterward. The whole experience runs 2–4 hours depending on track availability and session length.

You'll need a valid driving license and ID, comfortable clothes and sneakers. The course is designed for both men and women and adjusts to your experience level and physical capabilities. Helmets and gloves are provided.
