6 Tatuus also had a new project with British F4, the first among the major Formula 4 championships to have switched suppliers. "At the beginning, it was almost uncomfortable for us to work with two promoters, possibly competing with each other in the same country. We also had to overcome a certain lack of trust from the teams, who found themselves dealing with a different chassis maker and suppliers after a few years of stability. But now, it has all been overcome. British F4 is gradually gaining momentum, and for the next year, there are new teams willing to enter. With a good technical package, as always, the rest will come by itself." Moving to the other side of the Atlantic, you have the American‐based championship of the Road To Indy program. "There are a good number of entries in America as well, and for our part, we've finally got back with on‐site technical support, and we could talk with Andersen Promotions. We have gathered positive feedback from the teams for the updated Indy Pro 2000 and USF2000 chassis, both in terms of technical aspects and looks and the promoter also asked us to work on a lower‐spec category, the USF Juniors. We will provide a modular chassis, based on the Indy Pro 2000, which will be easily reconfigurable to go from one specification to another with a dedicated kit. Teams will have the opportunity to enter two championships." At the end of 2022, what would make you most satisfied for Tatuus? "October 10 is the date we have set to complete our move to the new headquarters. Outside of day‐to‐day operations, all of our efforts are focused on starting operation at the new Arese facility. It will be truly state‐of‐the‐art, first‐class. It will be a great achievement on the business side, but also an important step in terms of the welfare of our employees and customer satisfaction. It will also be located in a place with strong symbolic value, the former Alfa Romeo manufacturing plant." How the new headquarters will impact Tatuus? "It is something we have seen before with Autotecnica. When we transformed our headquarters, spaces, and equipment, the company's business also evolved. Business opportunities are created by how we present ourselves to potential partners. Of course, this is not meant to be only a promotional thing. We will triple the space to accommodate resources including personnel, machinery, processes, and procedures, and we will have the chance to use the adjacent test track. It will open up prospects that are perhaps not even imaginable today."
