Racing in Italy Mugello
Overview
Racing in Italy is a race team from near Milan that sells seats in the cars it races. At Mugello Circuit it runs full day track days in a Mygale Formula 4 with an Alpine engine and in Dallara Formula 3s with VW Spiess engines. The team brings its mechanics, an engineer on the telemetry and a professional race driver as coach.
The rest of the Mugello menu is a GT track day in a Mercedes AMG or an Audi R8, a motorcycle track day, and race weekend seats in the Formula 3, Formula 4 and GT cars at the FX Italian Series and Drexler Cup round.
Mugello is north of Florence. The team's workshop is in Vigevano, and its beginner courses and supercar test drives run at its home circuit at Castelletto di Branduzzo, south of Milan, which has its own listing.
What to Expect
- The Formula 4 is a 2018 Mygale with a 2.0 litre Alpine engine making 165 hp and a six speed sequential gearbox on paddles. It raced in Danish F4.
- The Formula 3 is a Dallara F308 with 245 hp or the newer F318 with 248 hp, both with VW Spiess engines and paddle shift. The team says its F308 was driven by Daniel Ricciardo in the 2008 Formula 3 season.
- The GT option is a Mercedes AMG or an Audi R8, both 2023 cars prepared for the GT cup in the FX Italian Series.
- The motorcycle track days use the team's Honda CBR600 or Yamaha R1.
- Every car is a single driver car. The coaching happens in the garage: after each session the coach goes through your telemetry and onboard video, shows where to brake and turn in, and the mechanics change the setup before the next run.
- The team arrives the day before to unload and prepare the cars. The morning starts with an internal briefing on the car and the circuit, then the day follows the circuit's session timetable on an active track with other cars, marshals and strict timing.
- The race weekend is a real team programme: seat fitting on Thursday (the team prefers to do it earlier at its offices near Milan), two free practice sessions on Friday with a telemetry and video debrief after each, qualifying on Saturday, then the races on Saturday afternoon or Sunday and the trophies.

- Who can drive: the Formula 3 days are only for drivers who have already driven a formula car. The Formula 4 and GT days accept entry level drivers, and the team recommends its racing course first. The team says a racing licence is required at most of the famous circuits. Race weekends need an INT C licence for the formula cars, and the GT needs a C licence, which the team helps obtain. Anyone booking must be 18 years of age or older.

- Deposit and damage: Formula 3 track days carry a €10,000 deposit, which the team states is the most charged after an accident. The Formula 4 day carries a €7,000 deposit unless car insurance is bought, the motorcycle track day €5,000, and the GT day and race weekends €20,000 unless insurance is bought. Damage the driver causes to the car or a third party is charged under the list attached to the waiver signed before going on track, personal injury sits with the driver's own insurance, and international visitors declare the activity to their own insurer.
- Gear: the GT day and the race weekends do not include gear, so an FIA approved helmet, HANS, gloves, suit, shoes and underwear are the driver's own. Gear can be bought through the team with a month's notice.
- Not included: travel, accommodation and any meals beyond those listed.
- Weather: the Formula 4 and the motorcycle track day run only on a dry track and do not run in snow, heavy rain or on a frozen track, with the day postponed or fully refunded.
