Sixteen races across F4 Italy, FREC, USF championships and F4 Spain delivered constantly shifting standings and marked the “home” debut of the Tatuus T-326 at Monza


A packed racing weekend brought together the main junior single-seater championships across Europe and the United States, delivering high-intensity action across multiple venues. Italian F4 and Spanish F4 featured tightly contested rounds with a wide spread of results, while the USF Pro Championships hosted one of their most anticipated events at Road America. In the Formula Regional European Championship, the Monza round also carried technical significance with the competitive debut on Italian soil of the new Tatuus T-326, already introduced earlier in the season but racing in Italy for the first time.



USF2000

Road America once again underlined the balance of the USF2000 field, producing three closely fought races and three different winners. At the historic Wisconsin venue, Eddie Beswick, Anthony Martella and Brad Majman each took a win, shaping a round defined by overtakes, comebacks and last-corner battles.

The opening race went to Eddie Beswick, who secured his maiden victory in the category after a tight duel with teammate Brad Majman, delivering a Pabst Racing 1–2 in front of the team’s home crowd. In the afternoon, Anthony Martella responded strongly after a difficult start to the weekend, claiming his second win of the season for Exclusive Autosport with a decisive move on Majman.

The final race belonged to Brad Majman, who struck back with his second win of the year after a consistent and competitive weekend. The Australian finished ahead of Beswick once again, sealing another Pabst Racing 1–2 and reinforcing the team’s strong form, as it left Road America leading the Teams’ standings.

While Pabst Racing collected the most wins, Sebastian Garzon continued to demonstrate remarkable championship maturity. Without replicating earlier dominance, the Colombian driver still scored consistently across all three races, finishing with a podium in the final race and limiting damage against his closest rivals. That consistency allows him to remain championship leader with a 30-point advantage over Majman.

Among the standout performers was also Oliver Wheldon, who delivered several impressive recoveries, including a climb from 24th to 6th in Race 2, confirming his potential once again.

A major incident in the opening laps of Race 3 involved Evan Cooley, whose car became airborne after a high-speed contact. The safety structures performed as intended, and the driver was able to exit the car immediately without assistance.

The USF2000 season now heads to Mid-Ohio for a double-header that is expected to intensify the title fight.


Standings

Sebastian Garzon — 234 points

Brad Majman — 204 points

Eddie Beswick — 170 points



USF Pro 2000


Unlike USF2000’s variety of winners, the USF Pro 2000 weekend was dominated by a single driver: G3 Argyros. At Road America, the Pabst Racing driver claimed his first two career victories in the category, completing a double that firmly boosts his title ambitions and highlights the team’s strong performance in Wisconsin.

The first win came after a race filled with overtakes and drama. After climbing through the field to reach the front, Argyros fought a long battle with polesitter Andres Cardenas, with the duel continuing into the closing stages. Behind them, Frankie Mossman completed the podium, while championship leader Jack Jeffers recovered from a difficult opening phase to finish fourth and secure the extra point for fastest lap.

Sunday confirmed Argyros’ momentum. Starting from pole position, he controlled the race from start to finish, never coming under serious threat from Jeffers or Cardenas. He also set the fastest lap, becoming the first driver of the season to score a maximum points haul in a single weekend.

Despite Argyros’ dominance, Jack Jeffers leaves Road America still leading the championship. The Exclusive Autosport driver limited losses with a fourth and a second place, maintaining the points lead although the gap has now narrowed. Behind them, the battle for the remaining podium positions remains extremely close, with Leonardo Escorpioni and Frankie Mossman separated by just one point.

The USF Pro 2000 field now moves to Mid-Ohio, where the championship fight is expected to intensify further.


Standings

Jack Jeffers — 155 points

G3 Argyros — 135 points

Leonardo Escorpioni — 131 points



FREC


The fourth round of the Formula Regional European Championship delivered a dramatic weekend at Monza, with three races and three different winners reshaping the championship picture. The standings remain extremely tight heading into the next event.

The opening race was won by Kean Nakamura-Berta, who delivered a flawless performance from pole position to take his second victory of the season and briefly move to the top of the standings. Emanuele Olivieri celebrated a strong home podium in second, while Salim Hanna completed the top three.

Race 2 belonged to Rashid Al Dhaheri, who produced a strong comeback drive to secure his second win of the season. Sebastian Wheldon continued his strong form with another second place, while Hanna once again scored a podium to complete a consistent weekend.

The final race went to Emanuele Olivieri, who converted pole position into his first FRECA win on home soil. The R-ace GP driver became the first Italian winner at Monza in the category since Andrea Kimi Antonelli in 2023. Wheldon followed in second, while Yuki Sano delivered a remarkable charge from 14th to complete his first podium of the season.

The championship remains wide open, with Al Dhaheri holding the lead, followed closely by Wheldon and Nakamura-Berta.

F4 Italy


The third round of the Italian F4 Championship at Monza was clearly defined by the dominance of Luka Sammalisto, who won three of the four races and strengthened his grip on the championship. The Finnish driver consistently dictated the pace throughout a weekend filled with incidents, battles and changing race dynamics.

Behind him, several drivers rotated through the leading positions. Noah Killion secured victory in Race 2 with a composed and well-managed performance, confirming US Racing’s competitiveness across the weekend. David Cosma-Cristofor was also consistently near the front, regularly involved in podium battles and again one of the category’s most solid performers.

Alp Aksoy also stood out for his consistency and racecraft, collecting valuable points despite a challenging context. Further down the field, several rookies and midfield drivers contributed to tightly fought battles that shaped an unpredictable overall picture across the four races.

The final race closed the weekend with a demanding and selective contest, reinforcing Sammalisto’s overall superiority without altering the dominant impression of his performance.


Standings

Luka Sammalisto — 228 points

David Cosma-Cristofor — 181 points

Alp Aksoy — 166 points



F4 Spain


The third round of the F4 Spanish Championship at MotorLand Aragón confirmed the season’s competitive balance, with three races and three different winners reshaping the standings. The title fight remains extremely open.

The weekend began with a closely fought qualifying session, where Nathan Tye claimed his maiden pole position in the series. Race 1 went to Nacho Tuñón, who recovered strongly from a difficult start to the season and converted his pace into victory after a competitive fight at the front. Tye and Andrej Petrovic completed the podium.

Race 2 saw Nathan Tye deliver a controlled and flawless drive from pole to finish, holding off pressure throughout to secure victory. Kasper Schormans and Tuñón completed the top three after another tight contest.

Race 3 featured another intense qualifying battle, with Andrej Petrovic securing pole position before converting it into victory through strong race management and restart control. Noah Monteiro finished second after a highly consistent weekend that moved him into the championship lead, while Tye completed his third podium of the weekend.

The round confirmed a tightly packed field with minimal gaps across the grid and frequent position changes throughout the races.


Standings

Noah Monteiro — 100 points

Rocco Coronel — 92 points

Kasper Schormans — 92 points

“From 2017 to Today: A Remarkable Growth Journey That Makes Me Proud”
“From 2017 to Today: A Remarkable Growth Journey That Makes Me Proud”
From the launch of the Group project in 2017 to the vision for the future: President Gianfranco De Bellis shares his thoughts during Mediobanca’s “Mid Corporate and Private Equity” event.
The Chairman of Korus Group , Gianfranco De Bellis , took part today in the event “Mid Corporate and Private Equity: Twenty Years of Transformation and Growth” , organized by Mediobanca and dedicated to the relationship between Italian mid-sized companies and private equity. His interview took place during a morning session that brought together private equity professionals and senior executives leading businesses backed by private equity funds, providing an opportunity to discuss growth strategies, value creation and the role of private equity in the development of Italian companies.

From Vision to Leadership
"I am very pleased to have embarked on this journey in 2017 together with our first investment fund," the Chairman said, reflecting on the evolution of Tatuus and the Group. "When I first met with the private equity investors, the idea I put on the table was to bring together Italy's niche expertise in motorsport. Bringing those capabilities together meant creating a group able to offer a true 360-degree solution. Back in 2017, Tatuus was a small company. Today, I am proud to say that 20 of the 22 current Formula 1 drivers developed through a Tatuus car, while our Group's turnover has grown significantly. For decades, the market for single-seater racing cars below Formula 1 was largely dominated by British manufacturers. Today, however, it is a sector that speaks Italian. That is something to reflect on, and it also challenges us to keep delivering something better in order to maintain our leadership position."

Building the Group
The audience showed particular interest when the Chairman described the process of building a motorsport group. "This is a very unique industry, and we were fortunate to find private equity partners who were genuinely passionate and willing to understand the dynamics of motorsport. Our first acquisition was an engine company, Autotecnica, whose CEO, Giovanni Delfino, was the ideal person to lead the entire Group thanks to his commercial and managerial expertise. The next step was the acquisition of Breda Racing, a company we had worked with for many years. This enabled us to strengthen our business and offer customers a Group capable of meeting every specific requirement in vehicle design and manufacturing. Throughout this process, we always preserved independent and differentiated business lines, ensuring the strength of each company while supporting healthy and diversified growth. Ownership later transitioned to The Equity Club, with whom we have built an outstanding relationship and who have brought great stability to the Group. Before private equity, we were almost navigating by sight, but over time we built a strong management team capable of turning our vision into reality."

Growth Built on People
The Chairman also highlighted the importance of people and the Group's commitment to investing in young talent. "The Covid period had a major impact, but motorsport responded extraordinarily well, returning to activity very quickly and triggering a phase of significant expansion. In less than ten years, we grew from Tatuus generating €13–14 million in revenue to a Group generating €150 million, while our workforce expanded from 20 employees to more than 300. It makes me proud to know that we have many outstanding young professionals in whom we have invested significantly, and who will carry forward the story of our brands and our Group with the same passion as those who founded them."

Looking Ahead
"Today we are able to take on major projects with a level of strength and structure that we could never have imagined in the past. Our goal is always to deliver the highest quality, both in our products and in our service, anywhere in the world and at any time, always placing the customer at the center of everything we do while nurturing the long-standing relationships that have brought our products to race on circuits across the globe. That is something to reflect on, and it also drives us to keep improving in order to maintain our leadership position." [...]

"It is no coincidence that the world turns to Italy to find quality in motorsport."
"It is no coincidence that the world turns to Italy to find quality in motorsport."
CEO Giovanni Delfino’s remarks at the Motor Valley Fest 2026
Motorsport is experiencing a period of strong vitality. Not only because of the results that continue to bring Italy back to the center of international competitions, but also because of the strength of an entire industrial system capable of transforming research, technology, and development into a competitive advantage recognized worldwide. These are some of the topics analyzed by Giovanni Delfino (CEO of the Korus Group and Tatuus) , starting from the concept of collaboration among different but complementary excellences.

A growing movement and an increasingly widespread demand for motorsport. “What we are experiencing is a demand for motorsport that is difficult to measure, but we are helped by some significant numbers, such as the 500 T-421 units recently celebrated by Tatuus and the 300 first-generation Formula 4 cars, along with all the other categories we supply. We are talking about a healthy movement that is clearly perceptible also in karting, where at every race we see hundreds of children showing determination and a strong desire to get into karts and compete. Today our priority is to continue producing and offering products to help these young drivers grow, so that they can eventually reach the top level of hypercars, F1, and IndyCar, with the awareness that it is not an easy or inexpensive path, but one to which we dedicate ourselves every day.”

The technological and industrial challenge of junior and entry categories. “Italian mechatronics is a benchmark and a point of reference. We produce and sell cars while respecting extremely strict price caps, with safety standards that must be guaranteed to young drivers racing at a very high competitive level. The effort is significant, but so is the satisfaction in seeing these results on track.”

Motorsport as an ecosystem of industrial collaboration. “The panel is called The Future of Racing and if I were asked what it means, fully understanding the depth of this title would require endless reasoning. But then I look around and I am joined in this panel by Pirelli, Marelli, Sabelt, and Ferrari, with whom we will be rivals in WEC but always friends. Many of them also collaborate on the T-421 project, which in itself is highly representative of what the future of racing stands for. I always recall with pleasure how we are on excellent terms with Dallara, with whom we share, without overlap, a specific area of activity such as the motorsport pyramid, which today represents an almost entirely Italian market.”

The role of Italy in motorsport “There are many OEMs that choose to work alongside Italian elite companies to develop their products, and this clearly demonstrates how strong Italy’s importance in motorsport is. It is no coincidence that from all over the world people look to Italy to find quality. For us, reaching a level of collaboration such as the one with McLaren has been an important step up; working with a manufacturer of this prestige is undoubtedly a source of pride and of absolute significance.”
Panel participants The panel held in Modena at the San Paolo complex featured representatives from several national and international motorsport organizations:
Marco Palmerini (MotoGP Vehicle Development Manager, Ducati) Lara Rodini (Global Sponsorships & Activation Director, Lenovo) Philippe Tramonde (Technical Director Motorsport, Michelin) Massimiliano Ortalli (VP, Market Unit Director, Automotive, Life Science, Manufacturing, Aerospace & Defence, Capgemini) Massimiliano Marsiaj (Executive Vice President, Sabelt S.p.A.) Riccardo De Filippi (CEO Motorsport, Marelli) Dario Marrafuschi (Head of Motorsport, Pirelli) Antonello Coletta (Ferrari) Vincent Biard (Head of Maserati Corse) Franco Cevolini (CEO, CRP Group) Alessandro Tucci (Executive Director Head of House of Grand Challenges, Aspire) Luca Ciancetti (Technical Director, Podium Advanced Technologies) [...]

Tatuus Celebrates the 500th T-421, the World’s Most Widely Used Formula 4 Car
Tatuus Celebrates the 500th T-421, the World’s Most Widely Used Formula 4 Car
The Lainate-based manufacturer has celebrated the production and delivery of the 500th chassis of the single-seater on which Kimi Antonelli and Arvid Lindblad developed their careers.

Born in 2021, the Tatuus T-421 reached its 500th unit produced and delivered in May 2026, once again confirming its status as one of the most manufactured and successful racing single-seaters worldwide. The milestone was celebrated by the Lainate-based brand together with all its employees and the sister companies of the Korus group, which contribute daily to the T-421 project: ATM–Autotecnica Motori, Breda Racing, and Next Solution Technologies.
Today, the T-421 is the most widely used Formula 4 car in the world, competing across 16 championships spanning Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Oceania. Behind its wheel, some of the most exciting talents in contemporary motorsport have developed, including Kimi Antonelli and Arvid Lindblad , who built the first steps of their single-seater careers in the second-generation Tatuus F4 before progressing all the way to the pinnacle of Formula 1.
“The 500th T-421 is not only a major milestone for Tatuus, but also an important achievement for the entire international motorsport ecosystem,” said Giovanni Delfino, CEO of Tatuus and the Korus Group. “With the introduction of Formula 4 in 2014, the FIA created a new pathway between karting and single-seaters, enabling drivers to arrive better prepared for higher categories. This model has established itself through years of significant growth in motorsport, during which many championships were launched and expanded, now reaching grids of nearly 50 cars per round with the second generation we celebrate today. These are figures that were difficult to imagine at the beginning of this journey, but which now define the everyday reality of many of the companies within the Korus Group.”
“Throughout Tatuus’ history, many of our models have achieved widespread adoption across global championships and have demonstrated unparalleled driver development capabilities,” added Gianfranco De Bellis, President of Tatuus and the Korus group. “The T-421 is writing an important chapter in the history of our brand and, together with the first-generation car, is now approaching 800 units produced. These volumes allow us to aim toward the milestone of 1,000 F4 single-seaters, a figure previously approached by the various Formula Renault models that marked a turning point in our history and in the development path of many drivers.”
As the second generation of Formula 4 single-seaters, the T-421 succeeded the T-014, which from 2014—the year Formula 4 was introduced—through 2021 was produced in just under 300 units. It represented the ideal platform for drivers transitioning from karting to single-seaters, and helped develop talents such as Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri, Max Verstappen, Isack Hadjar, Liam Lawson, Lance Stroll, Oliver Bearman, Gabriel Bortoleto, and Franco Colapinto.
The T-421 is just one of many examples of the cooperation that makes the Korus group one of the leading global ecosystems in motorsport engineering. The companies within the Group involved in the celebration have contributed to the project from day one, within a consolidated model of synergies that each year gives rise to new cars, powertrains, and solutions for motorsport.
Specifically, ATM–Autotecnica Motori developed and supplies the Abarth-derived inline four-cylinder engine that powers the car, while Breda Racing is responsible for a large portion of the components—such as the halo and suspension arms—as well as instrumentation required for managing the cars both on track and at HQ. Next Solution Technologies provides a significant part of the car’s electronic and electromechanical systems, in addition to supplying steering wheels and rain lights.
However, the milestone of 500 cars does not represent a finishing point for Tatuus. Production of the current model will continue through 2028 , when FIA regulations foresee the introduction of the third-generation car , on which the brands of the Korus Group are already actively working.
