FIA ETCR Key Personnel: Antonio Caruccio

A familiar face at the Romeo Ferraris desk in the Hot Zone, Antonio Caruccio is Head of Communications and Press Officer for the squad, and so much more than that, so we say Ciao Antonio and ask him some questions. Ad What is your role with the squad?I’m Head of Communication and Press Officer for the 2022 season.

I’m not only involved in the racing department in Romeo Ferraris, but over the years I found myself to help in multiple activities, both in our road department, in managing and planning events, plus the communication, and sometimes covering Team Manager, Sportive Director, Hospitality Manager and Drivers Coordinator role. Not only related to my RF experience, but thanks to my life in motorsport, I’ve been able to gain experience in many roles, and this makes my working figure very fluid over the season and the race weekend itself.

What do you think are the key characteristics of FIA ETCR?I’ve always been very critical of Electric Racing, because most of the time you are not really looking to be sustainable, but only promoting a new ideology. It’s also something still important, but FIA ETCR for the first time has created a consistent way to approach racing
