"Unfortunately, Ferrari paralyses the growth of young drivers by attracting the interest of companies to its championship, but the team is changing direction and, therefore, I hope that it will start to give opportunities for young talent to take part in a few days of testing."

Italians expecting to be at the fore in the main F1 feeder series, GP2, include not only comparative veteran Pantano, but also Davide Valsecchi, Honda test driver Luca Filippi and reigning national F3 champion Paolo Nocera, although only Filippi appears to have attracted the sort of support necessary to give him a leg up. Pantano's star has waned to the point where he has become a regular in GP2, while Liuzzi is no longer a part of the Red Bull set-up and will carry out reserve duties for Force India, behind Fisichella, this season.
