FWS: Viola Formula Racing to join Formula Winter Series grid at Barcelona

Italian single-seater squad Viola Formula Racing will join the GEDLICH Racing paddock for the Formula Winter Series finale at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.

The team’s solo entry will be driven by Ludovico Busso. The 15-year-old will make his debut in car racing, having been a regular frontrunner in the Italian karting scene previously, winning Sicilian Regional Championships as well as the 60 Mini class of the 2020 ACI Karting National Trophy. Having prepared for his single-seater debut throughout 2024, and received backing from the ACI Sicilian Delegation, his debut will be hotly anticipated.

The Viola Formula Racing outfit, run by the eponymous Andrea Viola, is looking to grow its presence on the single-seater racing ladder, having previously been a revered team in Italian Formula Renault 2.0 competition. The squad from San Benigno Canavese won the 2010 Italian FR2.0 championship, and will now compete in the 2025 Italian F4 and Euro 4 categories with Busso and his teammate Emir Tanju.

In 2024, Viola’s distinctive green and yellow cars competed in the F2000 Italian Formula Trophy, winning the FR2.0 Cup standings with Tanju.

The team, along with Ludovico Busso, will be looking to have a competitive outing in the Formula Winter Series at Barcelona. Championships will be on the line for the full-season teams, and all three races from Barcelona will be streamed live on the Winter Series YouTube channel.
