In Lonato, Anthony Abbasse made his debut in his new role as Sodi Racing Team captain, after being put in charge by the team boss, Nicola De Cola, and by Sodikart manager Gildas Mérian. He will lead and support the young drivers of the team by sharing with them his great racing experience, especially as far as driving in itself is concerned, and will also provide information about kart behaviour to the technical team.
Highly motivated, Anthony is well aware of the difficulty of his new role: “It is not that simple to deal with drivers who are so different from each other. I have to take into account each driver’s personality to encourage them to give the best of themselves. It will take some time, but I really like this challenge. For me, it is also an opportunity to discover another aspect of kart competition that may turn out to be useful in future, but my main objective is first to advance the team”.
Physical training is not neglected either: in addition to normal training activities, all drivers go jogging daily during practice. Anthony is also in charge of the nutritional part of racing preparation, so that everybody can be at the top.
