In order to give the best training to the new recruits of Auto Sport Academy, 8 official days of training for every driver is organized, with an effective training period of approximately 150 minutes per day. These lessons are supervised by professional instructors.

The drivers benefit from a progressive training that is adapted to the needs of every person: technique (trajectories, braking, heel and toe), decomposition corner by corner with direct debriefing or after each series, debriefing of data acquisition after a few sessions of driving.

Throughout all the days, the drivers will also learn the working methods that will enable them to prepare themselves to switch to a superior category with professional teams.

Throughout the season and apart from the monthly evaluations in English and the physical preparations that take place every 6 weeks, 3 grouped training periods of 3 days are organized at Auto Sport Academy. These conferences allow drivers to acquire a better knowledge of the world of motorsport and to understand what are the needs and qualities they must possess in order to progress to a very high level.
These conferences cover the following:

• Rights of sports
• Insurance of the sportsman
• Road Safety
• Analysis of Data acquisition
• Optimisation of Driving functioning/gearbox
• Functioning of kinematics of suspension
• Tyre characteristics
• Aerodynamics
• Dietetics of the driver
• Doping prevention
• Experience sharing of famous drivers

Physical preparation training
Drivers are submitted to physical evaluations that come to a program of physical preparation in cycles.

1st Cycle: Introduction in bodybuilding and in general muscular strengthening adapted to the morphology and age of the drivers.

2nd Cycle: Oriented physical preparation (Working on the muscle groups used in specific activities)

3rd Cycle: Individualised program according to the driver’s objectives in competition.

Training in foreign languages (French and English)
Evaluations in French for the non-French speakers and in English for the non-English speakers are part of this program. The aim of this training is to enable the drivers to hold a conversation (by the end of the season) with a race engineer in the setting up of a car. This is absolutely necessary early in the career of a driver.

This allows the drivers to be at ease when facing the requests of the different media and to be able to communicate effectively.

• Presentation, relational contact
• Functioning of media and journalists (TV, radio, written press)
• Verbal expression: how to present oneself clearly and precisely, from the personal and sportive point of view.
• Diction work and expression to be persuasive
• Measure the vocal image that we reflect to others
• Get used to hearing our voice, to be able to converse and get to know one’s strong points and weaknesses
• Get used to the microphone, the camera and correct the techniques
• Interview techniques
• Analysis and individual work
  

The Formula Academy Euro series is composed of 12 to 14 races over seven meetings.
This allows the drivers to race in France and abroad on famous circuits (Le Mans, Pau, Spa, Brno, Dubai, Barcelona) during big international events such as GT FIA, World Series by Renault, WTCC, DTm etc.

During the meetings, the drivers participate in private trials sessions 30 minutes before starting the qualifying sessions. During these sessions, the drivers are filmed from the side of the track and video briefings are organized in order to propose different working supports for finer correction to obtain faster times. The individual briefings of data acquisition are also done in tandem.
