Enzo Trulli is currently making a name for himself despite having a well known name on account of his Formula 1 race winning father, Jarno.
Still just 18, the Italian driver has competed in an incredible array of series' including FIA Formula 3, Euroformula Open Championship, Formula Regional Japanese and of late, Super Formula Lights. He also won his first ever single seater car series, F4 UAE, in 2021 as he beat tough competition in the form of drivers like Pepe Marti, Kirill Smal, Nikita Bedrin and the late Dilano van 't Hoff.
In the Super Formula feeder championship he's taken two wins and three podiums as he sits fourth in the standings with one round(three races) to go, competing against fellow former F3 drivers Igor Fraga and David Vidales among other names.

Onto his answers!
1. Hairpins or chicanes? Depends but I like both.
2. Long straights or slow corners? Slow corners, more fun.
3. Understeer or oversteer? A little oversteer.
4. Fast circuits or technical circuits? I like both, depends on the corners.
📸 Enzo takes on some wet weather.
5. Wet races or wet/dry races? Both are exciting and challenging so difficult to chose but wet/dry makes things more complicated and challenging.
6. What's your favourite circuit you've raced? Suzuka is one of the best.
📸 The stunning scenery of Suzuka.
7. Favourite you've NOT raced? Macau for sure and Brazil.
📸 Interlagos, Brazil.
8. Your favourite F1 livery ever? Difficult to say, but Red Bull livery looks nice and also some of the specials of Ferrari , but like also the Renault 2004 looked cool. Difficult to choose one there are to much!
📸 Notable driver of the R24: Fernando Alonso, Jacques Villeneuve, Jarno Trulli...
9. Your favourite helmet design ever? I don’t know to be honest, I like the Senna was really simple but looks good but now days every races there are different ones so is difficult to pick one.
📸 Is there a more recognisable crash helmet in F1 history?
10. Who is the best driver you've raced against? I races against some really good driver in karting so not easy to say for sure. Zak O'Sullivan was good and also Kimi(Antonelli) in karts but never raced with him in single seater so I can’t really say.
📸 Enzo and O'Sullivan were Carlin teammates in F3.
A huge thanks to Enzo for getting involved, hopefully we can do something again sometime!
