Automotive when art meets science: Pagani

I have had the opportunity to visit officially, as VP of RPM Network Business Development, ( representing AICA an association RPM is member of), the Pagani factory.

Every time I visit the place it truly represents the values that Horacio Pagani has set inspired by Leonardo da Vinci: art and science.

The mix is also quite evident in the latest unique racing machine, the Zonda Revo Barchetta.

Qarrar Firhand’s ascent phase continues supported by MindUP Enhancement Psychology ®

Quarrar Firhand, LA Motorsport, took a solid fifth place in the ROK SUPERFINAL 2022 MINI category at the South Garda Karting track in Lonato. There were 84 category participants in the Superfinal and Quarrar always managed to stand out in the top positions during qualifying, eliminatory heats, semi-final and final heats.

Congratulations to Quarrar whom is gradually becoming more and more familiar with the dynamics of our integrated mental training method; we are increasingly focusing to customize the method execution to the needs and opportunities for growth and development that this very young Indonesian talent is showing.

Relevant international stage for Qarrar Firhand’s talent development supported by MindUP Enhancement Psychology ® integrated mental training

On October 8th and 9th 2022 it was held at the Lonato South Garda Karting track, Italy, the traditional Trofeo Delle Industrie: the oldest karting race that this edition has reached the 50th anniversary. This race alone, in itself, represents traditionally the very top of international karting in terms of drivers and technology. Lorenzo Baldassarri and myself have followed Qarrar Firhand (Mini category, LA Motorsport Team, Parolin chassis, IAME engine) during the event racing activities. We have continued to implement Qarrar’s customized integrated mental training following MindUP Enhancement Psychology ® method and protocols.

Qarrar is progressively and markedly continuing his development path, more aware and self assured than ever, enabling the expression of his raising talent. Concrete results are naturally emerging from this: a spectacular, fun to watch for the passes, win during the heats path and consistently within the top six, that has been his solid result during the final.

It is a pleasure for us to work with such promising talent that since the very first steps of the method (during the assessment) has embraced the pragmatic approach (data driven, performance focused) that characterizes our protocols.

Overall the approach is also stimulating his progressive natural growth not only as a talented driver but also as a young person learning more about himself while having the spirited fun that characterizes his young age and development.
