I can’t lie, being a 16 year old who was told that he was talented enough his entire life, who ran out of money aged 12, and who 4 years later is thinking about how I could still get onto that ladder, this video might be the best and most relatable I’ve ever watched. Thank you.
@@gunnarray2342 Not a good idea to expect having the skillset for F1, you'll easily disappoint yourself. It's a big world out there and just as he says in the video: start small and eat dirt for a few years lol Edit: Also it's not necessary to go to Europe. There are thousands of racing series all over the world to start of with. Maybe on a certain level you could start looking for a few international championships in Europe like F3 or whatever but for starters where ever you are there's bound to be some racing going on to start of with
Awesome video Enzo, such great advice. This is all spot on. I wish TH-cam was around when I started! I saved £2.50 an hour to buy a kart at 15 and ended up in Aston Martin GT with no help at all from my parents the whole way through. I used to cycle 15 miles to the tracks carrying my kart engine. I can tell you all that this is video is how to do it.
1 year ago at a friend's birthday party (at some e-karts) i got in touch with the sport and started dreaming about racing, now i'm working my rally driving career; the other day (1 year later - now i'm 36) i competed on my first amateur race - available at my channel-, and in the meantime, i've been learning, studying and training... That is how i actually got to know your channel. You are a huge inspiration. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, Enzo!
Thank you for this video. I’m 14 and I’ve been go karting since I was 6, and just now am starting to get serious on how I am going to become a race car driver. This video helped me find a good path to that dream
the ONLY tip to becoming a "professional" race driver is (drum roll)........ ******MONEY***** that's all you will EVER need. you don't even have to be talented. you can't start a racing series with great drivers. you start a racing series with below average drivers with RICH parents. then an above average driver comes along and then he becomes a STAR!! the above average driver rules like a king. then out of the blue, an undeniably, very talented, SUPERSTAR comes along and slips through the cracks somehow and catches a FINANCIAL break. he of course out drives EVERYONE, and he becomes a GOD! all others are now being judged and compared to HIM...
Awesome information, Enzo. I've just sent off my first proposal using the advice and material provided in your Get The Drive program so I'm very thankful that I'm involved with it. The company I sent it to has already expressed interest so I'll be sure to let you know how it goes! Although I have some karting experience and have done some full-size car racing in the past, I'm also wanting to start small and get more miles under my belt. A beginning goal for me is the Skip Barber Racing Series here in the U.S. Their school is second to none and upon completion, you become eligible to race in their championship. They offer prizes, scholarships, and various rewards in this series and it has served as a successful stepping stone for many professional drivers. To run the series for the entire year costs $35k in the Formula car and $30k if you want to run the MX-5. They provide the car, service and even the gear if you don't have it. All the driver has to do is show up. It really doesn't get much better than that when you're just starting out here in the States. I've also made a list of several local companies that I plan to reach out to and have made a proposal which offers various sponsorship options from product to tens of thousands of dollars. Even though I haven't gone anywhere yet with this, I'm very thankful to have come across your work, Enzo. It feels good knowing that I'm at least working towards something instead of hoping it'll happen one day. I'll probably never stop saying thank you. If you ever make it down to Dallas, TX, give me a shout!
@@hyperwrath9977 Priorities changed and I've since started my own business. It really came down to a choice: Go racing and spend lots of money, or start my own business, work hard at it and then go racing whenever I want. It's taken me a long time to get there but sometimes you have to make your own path.
Im 13 years old im very talented (idk if you Can say it im not english) driver i always win but no money that's the problem but i still motivated By Kubica and i hope this video will help me...
Just shared to my Virtual2Reality.tv page on Facebook. I hope you don't mind. This does get into a bit the traditional way of getting into motorsports. We've gone Virtual however. I'll be using the iRacing.com platform to find talented drivers and take the winners of our events and place them in racing schools for testing and evaluation. Watching your video though I was able to take a lot away from it for what we're doing. Your Dream Big and Start Small really rings a bell. I've written it down and will be following that as we're the ones raising the funding on behalf of our drivers. Thanks for the video, very informative. JH
Wow! That was actually quite inspirational. I’m 15 almost 16 and I have no actual racing experience other than Sim racing and hire karting but is there a possibility that I can apply the same philosophy to getting into karting? Anyway before this I was kind of loosing hope that I could ever get into racing. But now you have made it seem so simple! I’m gonna try work towards it and see what I can do.
Well am actually in the Same situation, and I live in Colombia, a country which has no motorsport culture. so it's really difficult. sadly, money is an important factor
@@amaliabernate5924 same I live in a place where karting is an alien thing to find. Really hard to start this ambition of mine. I'm now 19 and I hope it's still possible to start it in my mid-late 20's. Because I need to make some money first lol.
I dont know if someone might reply of not.. but.. here it goes. I am 24 years old.. completed my MBBS in India.

bro is you wanna be a race car driver you gotta start small, develop a body to maintain your height and weight and make sure your neck and all is very strong. If money is a problem try getting loans from banks or use your MBBS salary money and start late. Professional racecar drivers are around 30-40 years old even though they started at 5-8 years old

Hey Enzo, I am from Nepal where a career in motorsport is not even an option! No tracks and no racing environment. I am 17 now and I am moving out next year..... I am planning to go to a country where Motorsport is respected and opportunities are numerous. Your videos have inspired me a lot but I still want to be realistic.... do you think it is possible for me to have a future in Motorsport if I start at this age???
Would it be a big problem if I wanted to become an Indycar driver/racer (or whatever you wanna call it) if I live in England?, I’m 14 and I don’t know where to start as the main thing over here is formula 1 so I don’t know if there’s a particular karting place I need to go (because Indycar tracks make you do a left turn and F1 do both left and right turns), it kinda sad as Indy and nascar isn’t really recognised over here
Great video, it almost made me cry. I am actually starting to believe in myself more than ever. A big motivation by the way for us rookies who desire to make a mark in this trade. Hope for more fruitful videos. Will be in touch.🙂
Your speech hit me hard in the brain when you brought up your 19yr old self. I'm 19 too and thought the same way you did at times. I'm gonna go get me a job and buy a cheap track car. Will come back to this video.

Sorry to say it mate but if you're at university that ship has long since sailed for you. Every F1 driver on the grid has been driving since long before they were teenagers.
Since i remeber myself i love cars and racing...i am 20 yrs old i will start kart at genk at 21...and i will manage to have about 1 - 1,5 M.Can i join the f1 or f2 ?I mean i dont have the problem with the money....my problem is the age...

Can anyone help me out and give me advice on where to start? I live in Europe and not rich. Lots of people say that to become a racer you need to be rich, which frustrates me kind of.
Bro thank you I just watch your video and I get appointment in 3 hours I will go for first class this was my big dream and I never go even for a school I’m 28 year old Thank you 🙏
I remember when i was 17 or 18, living in brooklyn in a poor/middle-class family I was told I had to be in a wealthy family to be a professional racer... sadly i let that kill my dream while I was young and served time in the army infantry instead... I'm a software engineer now at 35 and I still have my heart calling me to race... I play sims all the time, games, and even go-kart now... I am very curious if I can maybe somehow find out if I am rare talent for the profession of racing. Can I still make that dream happen at this age...?
Thank you ...this video is amazing it motivated me 100% full of great advice I got my motorsport physical scheduled and I start a HPDE novice race school in March,2019. I built my track car myself it has sat in my garage these last 2 years race ready and action is overdue , now it's time to use it "START SMALL DREAM BIG"...Thank you Enzo...
@@EnzoMucci Thank you sir ...Yes there is, I'm in love with the whole process can't wait to experience the hard work I put into the car on the track along side the challenges of doing repairs on scene under time limits before next run or race don't know yet how it works , but keep the great content coming ..Thanks again ..
as a club racing driver of 25 years, the key thing you need even before embarking on a low level championship is practice, you need to be in a car all the time. Particularly if you have not raced anything before. My advise would be, go to a race school, meet some people, see if you like it. Buy a track car ( doesn't have to be fast but should be reliable) and do trackdays aiming for 200 track miles a day x10 days, then after at least one year you might then be ready to do the low level championship and win. Otherwise you'll spend all the money you have and be even further away from the dream as you've essentially proven you're not a winner because you won't have had the experience.
I dont really need 200 grand to start i just need to pay a karting team $1000 per month. But i dont have it. Is it ok if i start in a rental kart c'ship.could i get sponsors from a rental kart c'ship
Hi. Yes it is totally ok to start with rental karting. Getting outside sponsorship isn’t normally possible because there is no commercial value in it for them, so sponsorship from family members or just hustling in life to earn that $1,000 per month is normally what drivers do. Flipping things on Facebook Marketplace, working a night job and getting money in the old fashioned way is what most drivers will do for these championships. All the best KS
Hi Enzo Mucci, My name is Aryan. I have a lot of experience in kart racing. I want to become a Formula 1 Driver. I have one question. How can I take part in a karting championship? I can't find any in the environment I am in.
I'm going to take go-karting on some time this week or next week thanks to this video! I was that person sitting in my room looking at the dream but not doing anything toward it. This video instantly changed my mind, thank you!
Let's be honest most of us are here cuz we ain't got money and we are talented but also we gotta consider in this only 20 people will make it to F1 or if you want any othertop-tiere racing like Nascar,Indycar,Touring in most of them only 20 drivers are racing and most of teams prefer experienced drivers so that would make it ten and considering all top-tier motorsports in the world that Maximum are like 15 only 150 people will make it to the top step so being talented is not only necessary it is being better than other talented people and that is actually all
Gotta be fast and have money. Then on top of that you gotta find sponsorship. I’ve raced with karting drivers who can probably keep up with F1 and Indycar drivers. But it’s all about money and who you know. Being fast is only the start.
I just turned 17 and i have never thought id wanna be a F1 driver but i just went to my first karting thing today and i went to see if i would really wanna be a “professional driver” and oh my gosh it made me so happy that i got a career i would really love to pursue . So what im still struggling with is , where do i even start ? Do i need race school ? A certain school for F1 ? Please help me somebody . Thank you !
I’m afraid someone needs to pay for that car and team. Get into eSports, do some fun karting, and work your tail off to save up over the next 3 years to afford some cheap car racing. Then you take things from there.
Mate today with your computer you can make money ! Dropshipping, creating a brand or even investing in stocks is a simple way to make money. It’s simple but not easy. You’ll need to watch lots if tutorials for this
i like race but in tunisia we don't have that kind of sport cars , from my 10 years old i dream about formula 1 to be famous and be the most popular but what can i say i love my country but i don't know how to atteint my dream , i'm a good racer i do drift also i have a sport car and i do sometimes some karting competition i'm a professional racer i admit what can i do to atteint my dream can you help me before i die without achieving my dream i will be thankful ..!!!
This is great, but what I want to know is how do you get a drive even if you have the money and everything. How would you get a deal with whatever team in the first place. How do you go about buying a car or getting a contract anyway?
How did you get a bank loan? Would banks give you a loan to go to a Racing School? Even for 1, 2, or even 3 day? In the US, Allen Berg has a Racing School but it’s expensive, $6.5k for 3 days. I’m also 24, so being able to get a start will be hard, but I’m also curious to see how far I can go.
I just applied for it for a car purchase. I would not recommend getting a bank loan because you will be in the hole before you even start, I did the bank loan twice but the second time I regretted it because I could only manage to do half a season of racing, but had to keep paying that loan off for 5 years after, that was painful.
I’m only 13 and I want to become a race car driver like my father, but I’m still young and I really want to become a race car driver. I have been participating in races, but I always landed 10th place. Is it normal to feel like I should give up? Or should I not give up?
This depends what your goal is. If it is to become a professional race driver then once you are old enough the drive cars, then you may as well go straight to cars. If you just want to have fun then there is no age limit
Thank you for this I'm black and I want to be a formula 1 driver and I have the talent can you help me figure out how to get my name out there can I get advice please because I really want to achieve my dreams if you can give me advice thank you so much God bless. Btw nice video thank you.
Hey can i get some advice, I'm 13 I can already drive I drive my dads car but I can't race and I live in the Philippines there's not much races in here what should I do my parents has a history of engineering but they want me to be an architect ISO to but my passion is cars and racing what should I do
I'm 19 a real estate entrepreneur, I've made good money. All I need is some advice where to go what to do. Some one point in the right direction. I have the money. What do I do now!
I’m 17 and I been racing go carts for a while I’m good and I just don’t know how to actually become a race bc I race in little places that people go Just to have fun but my dream is a race car driver and have no place to start at all
@@sheff__8273 also you should check with someone else but if you want to make it to the next step maybe look for sponsors to afford getting into f4 and you might need some liscense
You know I never really thought about what I wanted to do as a profession until today and being a professional race driver popped up in the back of my head because I’ve always kinda thought maybe I could do that as a profession because I’ve always had a thing for cars and racing, so I’m glad I saw this video so if I choose to follow this path this will be a great reference
I'm 19 years old I I live in Africa, there's no racing enthusiasms, I'm looking forward to come study in the UK, my question is how would I start to become a formula 1 driver I have no budget

I remember when i was 17 or 18, living in brooklyn in a poor/middle-class family I was told I had to be in a wealthy family to be a professional racer... sadly i let that kill my dream while I was young and served time in the army infantry instead... I'm a software engineer now at 35 and I still have my heart calling me to race... I play sims all the time, games, and even go-kart now... I am very curious if I can maybe somehow find out if I am rare talent for the profession of racing. Can I still make that dream happen at this age...?
J E how’s it going? I’m 29 and I feel a calling to Motorsport
This is real for me man. I dont see the brigde to pass.poor me😔😔
19 idk where to start
how much is formula ford ?
Best how to video on becoming a racecar driver. Nice video bud 👍
Thank you ...this video is amazing it motivated me 100% full of great advice I got my motorsport physical scheduled and I start a HPDE novice race school in March,2019. I built my track car myself it has sat in my garage these last 2 years race ready and action is overdue , now it's time to use it "START SMALL DREAM BIG"...Thank you Enzo...
@@EnzoMucci Thank you sir ...Yes there is, I'm in love with the whole process can't wait to experience the hard work I put into the car on the track along side the challenges of doing repairs on scene under time limits before next run or race don't know yet how it works , but keep the great content coming ..Thanks again ..
Keep us updated David!!!!!
Yes sir I will definitely keep you updated!!

How much I need to spend?
as a club racing driver of 25 years, the key thing you need even before embarking on a low level championship is practice, you need to be in a car all the time. Particularly if you have not raced anything before. My advise would be, go to a race school, meet some people, see if you like it. Buy a track car ( doesn't have to be fast but should be reliable) and do trackdays aiming for 200 track miles a day x10 days, then after at least one year you might then be ready to do the low level championship and win. Otherwise you'll spend all the money you have and be even further away from the dream as you've essentially proven you're not a winner because you won't have had the experience.
At age of 25 can I start the career?
From where ?
How?
I will do a video on this for the next episode this Monday
Thank you it was really a valuable lessons for me
I dont really need 200 grand to start i just need to pay a karting team $1000 per month. But i dont have it. Is it ok if i start in a rental kart c'ship.could i get sponsors from a rental kart c'ship
Hi. Yes it is totally ok to start with rental karting. Getting outside sponsorship isn’t normally possible because there is no commercial value in it for them, so sponsorship from family members or just hustling in life to earn that $1,000 per month is normally what drivers do. Flipping things on Facebook Marketplace, working a night job and getting money in the old fashioned way is what most drivers will do for these championships. All the best KS
@@EnzoMucci thanks enzo
Hi Enzo Mucci, My name is Aryan. I have a lot of experience in kart racing. I want to become a Formula 1 Driver. I have one question. How can I take part in a karting championship? I can't find any in the environment I am in.
where are you from? try find the nearest karting club to you and visit the place.
Hey Amir! Where do you live? Finding a karting championship can be hard depending on location, but we are happy to help if we can!
Is go-karting a good way to 'practice' until you are old enough to drive?
Thanks for the fast reply! What should you start with when you can drive? Track days?
I'm going to take go-karting on some time this week or next week thanks to this video! I was that person sitting in my room looking at the dream but not doing anything toward it. This video instantly changed my mind, thank you!
Let's be honest most of us are here cuz we ain't got money and we are talented but also we gotta consider in this only 20 people will make it to F1 or if you want any othertop-tiere racing like Nascar,Indycar,Touring in most of them only 20 drivers are racing and most of teams prefer experienced drivers so that would make it ten and considering all top-tier motorsports in the world that Maximum are like 15 only 150 people will make it to the top step so being talented is not only necessary it is being better than other talented people and that is actually all
Gotta be fast and have money. Then on top of that you gotta find sponsorship. I’ve raced with karting drivers who can probably keep up with F1 and Indycar drivers. But it’s all about money and who you know. Being fast is only the start.
I just turned 17 and i have never thought id wanna be a F1 driver but i just went to my first karting thing today and i went to see if i would really wanna be a “professional driver” and oh my gosh it made me so happy that i got a career i would really love to pursue . So what im still struggling with is , where do i even start ? Do i need race school ? A certain school for F1 ? Please help me somebody . Thank you !
I am 14 years old and i cannot afford a gokart. Is there another way to reach wec or F1?
I’m afraid someone needs to pay for that car and team. Get into eSports, do some fun karting, and work your tail off to save up over the next 3 years to afford some cheap car racing. Then you take things from there.
Mate today with your computer you can make money ! Dropshipping, creating a brand or even investing in stocks is a simple way to make money. It’s simple but not easy. You’ll need to watch lots if tutorials for this
Sei italiano?!
Hi Robby. My Father is Italian but I’m English. My Italian sucks 😀
@@EnzoMucci ok thanks ;)
Read 10 books subject matter- basic-judgement, skills
You have your own book on display in the background. Is is autographed as well? LawL
i like race but in tunisia we don't have that kind of sport cars , from my 10 years old i dream about formula 1 to be famous and be the most popular but what can i say i love my country but i don't know how to atteint my dream , i'm a good racer i do drift also i have a sport car and i do sometimes some karting competition i'm a professional racer i admit what can i do to atteint my dream can you help me before i die without achieving my dream i will be thankful ..!!!
This is great, but what I want to know is how do you get a drive even if you have the money and everything. How would you get a deal with whatever team in the first place. How do you go about buying a car or getting a contract anyway?
What if your country has 0 racing championships or tournaments, not even a karting place in the whole country?
I am a very talented kart driver but I live in Macedonia,here we don't have any kart races,can someone help me to become a F1 driver
How do you move your race car from race to race?
By a trailer, it can be a bit costly cos you need a trailer and/or a car/van to pull it.
Awesome , but can you tell me an example of the Mazda MX-5 championship that is in Germany ??
Thank you for this video man. It definitely helped put me back on course. 🙏🏾
How did you get a bank loan? Would banks give you a loan to go to a Racing School? Even for 1, 2, or even 3 day? In the US, Allen Berg has a Racing School but it’s expensive, $6.5k for 3 days.
I’m also 24, so being able to get a start will be hard, but I’m also curious to see how far I can go.
I just applied for it for a car purchase. I would not recommend getting a bank loan because you will be in the hole before you even start, I did the bank loan twice but the second time I regretted it because I could only manage to do half a season of racing, but had to keep paying that loan off for 5 years after, that was painful.
I race in rotax max challenge Germany with the official Birel ART team
I’m only 13 and I want to become a race car driver like my father, but I’m still young and I really want to become a race car driver. I have been participating in races, but I always landed 10th place. Is it normal to feel like I should give up? Or should I not give up?
never give up
Is there a way to contact you for more specific questions?
Hey Enzo, brilliant advice!! this is applicable not only to racing, but to achieve success in any field/career no matter what. Subscribed from India!!
Thanks buddy. Great to have you with us 👊
What age do you think it would be too late to start karting?
This depends what your goal is. If it is to become a professional race driver then once you are old enough the drive cars, then you may as well go straight to cars. If you just want to have fun then there is no age limit
@@EnzoMucci thank you
What is your contact email for questions? I would like to hear your opinion on something

Just to have fun but my dream is a race car driver and have no place to start at all
*Karts
Great Video Enzo, thanks for the great advice!
I'm 15, I'm not being big headed but I'm quite good at karting and could kinda afford it, what now ?
How is it I’m 15 too and want to start karting was it hard? Would love to start f4
@@saints_ no, it's good you just have to be good at it
@@sheff__8273 also you should check with someone else but if you want to make it to the next step maybe look for sponsors to afford getting into f4 and you might need some liscense
@@saints_ yeah definitely, I'm going to have a very good go at it and my parents have both agreed to it
@@sheff__8273 nice tell me how it goes
You know I never really thought about what I wanted to do as a profession until today and being a professional race driver popped up in the back of my head because I’ve always kinda thought maybe I could do that as a profession because I’ve always had a thing for cars and racing, so I’m glad I saw this video so if I choose to follow this path this will be a great reference
well keep that in mind if my car and racing addition keep growing
I know I already commented on this video but thank you for helping people like me
@@EnzoMucci thanks for the motivation 🙂👍
And how the hell are you meant to get all these sponsors
I'm 19 years old I I live in Africa, there's no racing enthusiasms, I'm looking forward to come study in the UK, my question is how would I start to become a formula 1 driver I have no budget
Im going to be a Formula 1 driver
If you're 19 and havent driven competitively you're never becoming an f1 driver. Most current f1 drivers started before they were 9 nevermind 19
Aeent tou a little bit old to start building racing carier.Btw sorry for bad English
Enzo Mucci just kidding 😉
I have no history
How do you start small
Thanks bro really helpful
