DeFrancesco, ‘White Bulls’ and Road America: 10 Questions to a Racing Driver with Michael Costello

by Alex Johnston


My latest guest for '10 Questions' is Michael Costello. Michael is currently racing in US Formula 4 for Jay Howard Driver Developments in the series as he embarks on the early stage of his journey to the top.


So far in US F4 he's taken three wins and five podiums and sits second in the standings with one three race round at COTA to go.

📸 On track.


Interestingly, he's managed by Fernando Alonso's 'A14 Management' team alongside the likes of Max Gunther, Pepe Marti and F3 champion Gabriel Bortoleto.

📸 Michael's talent has caught the eye of 2 time F1 Drivers Champion Fernando Alonso's management team.


Onto Michael's answers!


1. Hairpins or chicanes? I like hairpins.


2. Long straights or slow corners? Long straights


3. Understeer or oversteer? Oversteer.
