Chequered Flag Experience
Continuous Improvement
An important quality of a driver is the ability to recognise that he is the weakest component of the system. It is the driver’s imperfect inputs that prevent the car from going as quickly as it can.
Controlled Aggression
The role of the driver is to extract the maximum performance from the equipment over the race duration. Optimum performance of the tyre is beyond the point of breaking adhesion but within the ultimate level of grip. The car must slide but not to the point that cornering speed is lost or power cannot be applied early in the corner.
Fine Margins
The correct line requires late and sharp corner entry, while looking to apply power through the corner while reducing steering input. This is not the quickest way through the corner but results in higher speed leading onto the straight, with time being made up all the way down the straight.
Start Line Performance
Leo, a seasoned karting champion, has won numerous national and international titles since the age of seven. In 2019, he achieved third place in the IAME Euroseries and the World Final in Le Mans. At 14, Leo transitioned to cars, becoming the youngest-ever race winner in Ginetta Junior. He further progressed to the British F4 Championship in 2024, following in the footsteps of F1 driver Lando Norris and others who made the move from karts to cars.
