Antonio Fuoco
Senior teams hold their nerve in slides. They lose it when decisions arrive faster than they can be processed. Most leaders never operate where a single error is unrecoverable in real time, yet they want their teams to behave as if it were. The question is what high-pressure execution actually looks like inside an organisation where that standard is the baseline.
Antonio Fuoco is an Italian racing driver, 2024 Le Mans Hypercar winner, and Scuderia Ferrari development driver who speaks to senior teams on performance, composure, and team execution at the top of motorsport.

Biography
The seat of a Le Mans Hypercar at three in the morning, in the rain, after twenty hours of racing, is one of the few places where a team’s preparation and a driver’s composure are tested without margin. Antonio Fuoco was in that seat in 2024, sharing the No. 50 Ferrari 499P with Miguel Molina and Nicklas Nielsen, when the car crossed the line first overall at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
That win was the headline result of Ferrari’s return to top-class endurance racing. It came in the second year of the Hypercar programme, against Toyota, Porsche and Cadillac, in conditions that decided the race. Fuoco has stayed in the No. 50 car for every season of the 499P era and remains part of the Ferrari World Endurance Championship line-up alongside his Scuderia Ferrari Formula 1 development role.
His path into Ferrari is a useful frame for the keynote. Selected into the Ferrari Driver Academy in 2013 after the Formula Renault 2.0 Alps title with Prema, he progressed through European Formula 3, GP3, and Formula 2, where he won races at Monza, Monaco and Abu Dhabi as Charles Leclerc’s teammate in the 2017 season. He was promoted to Scuderia Ferrari test driver in 2019 and made his F1 free practice debut for the team at the 2025 Mexico City Grand Prix.
What audiences get from Fuoco is a current view, not a memoir. He still races for Ferrari, still sits in development meetings inside Maranello, and can speak directly to how a championship-winning team prepares, recovers from a poor stint, and rebuilds trust between the driver and the engineers who put the car under him for the next stint.
