year, and it may be that in 2023, or later, there will be an update based on the information gathered, especially for the calibration. We are open to this possibility, but it is still early to decide." Can the commitment to the Formula 4 project pave the way for other synergies on a permanent basis between Tatuus and Andreani Group? “That was exactly the goal we had in mind when we spoke with Tatuus. We thought of a medium to long‐term relationship, not confined exclusively to Formula 4, which is a pretty large program by the way. Very shortly, we will start a production line dedicated to the USF Juniors series, which will be launched in the United States from 2023." Tatuus created a network of highly‐specialized companies for its projects, confirming that there are many excellent Italian companies. "Tatuus is already a brilliant example in itself and together with the other companies in the same group, such as Autotecnica and Breda Racing, is an absolute benchmark in Formula 4 and Formula Regional competition. Achieving this was by no means easy. It means dealing with very competitive and therefore very demanding teams, who expect extremely high standards for every component. Knowing how to satisfy this kind of client, and still keeping budgets under control, shows what the brilliance of Tatuus is all about.

I think this is a significant aspect in terms of delivering maximum fairness in competition. And on this front, we will certainly expand to the other F4 championships in which Tatuus cars are used." Does your product also have a training function for young drivers or engineers who are just starting their career? "I would say yes. The shock absorber is two‐way adjustable, with separate compression and rebound. The range of configurations is very wide. Although it is designed for an entry‐level meeting the required budget parameters, it is a professional product that allows you to experiment with different configurations and understand the behavioral variations on the car." Beyond the great recognition for your work, is there anything you are considering refining for the future? "This season, the car was completely new, as were our dampers, so gaining experience was crucial. After all, no matter how much analysis and checking is done at home, it is always the track that gives the opinion that matters. We will be acquiring data throughout the whole
