Mattia Cattapan, the first disabled driver in Italy to compete against able-bodied athletes, is a great example of how passion and determination can overcome any obstacle.
His kart, entirely branded by Fanola and powered by an 850 Yamaha engine boasting 130 horsepower, has been specially adapted to enable him to race without the use of his legs. Weighing in at 350 kg, this vehicle is designed to be operated solely using his hands; the brakes, accelerator, and gears are all manually controlled.
This is a tangible expression of our commitment to promoting diversity and inclusion, as well as nurturing talent in all its forms.
Fanola has been by Mattias side every step of the way, giving him the support and determination he needs to reach the top of the Championship. With passion, dedication, and the right support, every goal is achievable, and Mattias success is a collective triumph.
