Antonio Maria Giovinazzi (Italian pronunciation: [anˈtɔːnjo dʒoviˈnattsi]; born 14 December 1993) is an Italian racing driver, who competes in the FIA World Endurance Championship for Ferrari. Giovinazzi competed in Formula One between 2017 and 2021.[b] In endurance racing, Giovinazzi won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2023 with Ferrari.

Born in Martina Franca, Taranto, Giovinazzi began competitive kart racing aged six, winning several national and international titles. Graduating to junior formulae in 2012, he won his first championship at the Formula Pilota China that year. After finishing runner-up in the 2013 British Formula 3 Championship, Giovinazzi moved to the FIA Formula 3 European Championship in 2014, finishing runner-up to Felix Rosenqvist the following season and winning the Masters of Formula 3. Giovinazzi then progressed to the GP2 Series in 2016, finishing runner-up to Pierre Gasly in his rookie season with Prema.

A reserve driver for Sauber, Ferrari and Haas in 2017, Giovinazzi made his Formula One debut for the former at the Australian Grand Prix, replacing an injured Pascal Wehrlein for the opening two rounds of the season. Following another season as a reserve driver for Sauber and Ferrari in 2018, Giovinazzi signed for Sauber—re-branded as Alfa Romeo—as a full-time driver for the 2019 season. He scored his maiden points finish at the Austrian Grand Prix, with a career-best fifth at the Brazilian Grand Prix. Giovinazzi remained at Alfa Romeo for the 2020 season, scoring three points finishes throughout the season. Retaining his seat for 2021, he scored further points in Monaco and Saudi Arabia, before being dropped by Alfa Romeo at the conclusion of the season. Giovinazzi has since remained a reserve driver for Ferrari, a role he has held continuously since 2017.

Outside of Formula One, Giovinazzi has competed in the 2021–22 Formula E World Championship with Dragon, and in the FIA World Endurance Championship since 2016. Joining the Ferrari 499P Hypercar project in its inaugural 2023 season, Giovinazzi won the 24 Hours of Le Mans alongside James Calado and Alessandro Pier Guidi. Giovinazzi has also competed in the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters, the Asian Le Mans Series and the European Le Mans Series.

Early and personal life

[edit]

Antonio Maria Giovinazzi was born on 14 December 1993 in Martina Franca, Taranto, Italy.[3]

Junior racing career

[edit]

Karting

[edit]

Giovinazzi began karting in 2000.[4] In 2006, he became the champion in the Italian National Trophy 60cc and Euro Trophy 60 championships.[5] He was champion of the WSK Master Series in the KF2 class in both 2010 and 2011.[4]

Formula Pilota China

[edit]

Giovinazzi began his single seater career by competing in Formula Pilota China in 2012.[6] He finished as the overall champion in his debut season with a total of six wins. He also raced for the BVM team in the last round of the 2012 Formula Abarth season at Monza. Despite winning two races and finishing in second place in one, he did not receive any points since he was a guest driver.[7]

Formula Three

[edit]

Giovinazzi competed in the 2013 British Formula Three Championship season with the Double R Racing team, alongside Sean Gelael and Tatiana Calderón.[8] He won two races, at Silverstone and at Spa-Francorchamps, and ended the season as runner-up behind Jordan King.[9] During the season, Giovinazzi entered the 2013 Masters of Formula 3, finishing the race in 10th place.[10]

Giovinazzi at the Hockenheimring round of the 2014 FIA Formula 3 European Championship

In 2013, Giovinazzi made his debut in the FIA Formula 3 European Championship with the Double R Racing team.[11] He scored his first points at the fourth round in Brands Hatch, finishing 11th in the first race.[12] His best result of the season was at the final race in Hockenheim, where he finished 6th. Giovinazzi ended the season in 15th place in the championship with 45 points.

Giovinazzi in 2014

In 2014, Giovinazzi signed with Jagonya Ayam with Carlin to compete in the 2014 FIA Formula 3 European Championship season.[13] His first Formula 3 podium came with a 2nd-place finish in Hockenheim. His first win came from pole position at the Red Bull Ring, before adding another win at the following round at the Nürburgring. He ended the season in 6th place in the standings with 238 points, recording two wins, seven podium finishes, two pole positions and three fastest laps.

Giovinazzi continued in the championship with Jagonya Agam with Carlin in 2015, in a field which included future Formula One competitors Charles Leclerc, Lance Stroll, George Russell and Alexander Albon. He was a championship contender for much of the season, eventually losing out to Felix Rosenqvist. Giovinazzi ended the season as the championship runner-up, with 412.5 points. He recorded six wins, twenty podium finishes, four pole positions and four fastest laps. During the 2015 season he made his second appearance at the Masters of Formula 3 race, winning the race after starting from 2nd on the grid.

After the end of his European Formula 3 season, Giovinazzi entered the non-championship 2015 Macau Grand Prix with Carlin, qualifying in 4th place. In the qualifying race, he caused a multi-car pile up on the first lap after colliding with Daniel Juncadella. Giovinazzi went on to win the qualifying race, but was later handed a 20-second penalty for the incident, demoting him to 10th. At the main event, he recovered to finish in 4th place.

GP2 Series

[edit]

Giovinazzi joined the series with Prema Powerteam for the 2016 season alongside Red Bull Junior and 2014 Formula Renault 3.5 Series runner-up Pierre Gasly.[14]

After a poor start by finishing outside the points and losing reverse grid pole in the first two rounds, Giovinazzi scored victories in both the feature and sprint races in Baku, becoming the first driver to do 'the double' since Davide Valsecchi in 2012.

Giovinazzi took pole position from his teammate Gasly at Spa, and won the Sprint Race after Gasly had won the feature race on Saturday.[15][16] At Monza, he took pole position, but was disqualified from the session due to a technical infringement. Despite starting from the back of the grid, he won in the Feature Race after a mix up involving the safety car that worked in his favour.[17]

Giovinazzi took the lead of the championship at Sepang by overtaking Sergey Sirotkin late on for his 5th win of the season.[18] However, Pierre Gasly's victory in the Abu Dhabi feature race meant that Gasly led by 12 points into the final race.[19] Giovinazzi finished the final race ahead of Gasly as Alex Lynn won the race, however, after making a poor start, he was unable to overturn the 12-point gap, and Gasly won the championship by 8 points.[20]

Had Giovinazzi won the championship, he would have been the first rookie champion since Nico Hülkenberg in 2009.[21] He would also have been the last GP2 champion as the series would become FIA Formula 2 Championship for 2017.

Formula One career

[edit]

On 5 September 2016, it was announced that Giovinazzi would perform simulator work for Scuderia Ferrari.[22][23] In December, he was confirmed as Ferrari's third driver.[24]

Race debut as reserve driver (2017–2018)

[edit]
Giovinazzi testing for Sauber in 2017 at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya

Giovinazzi participated in pre-season testing for the 2017 season with Sauber. In a similar fashion to his DTM debut two years prior, he substituted for the injured Pascal Wehrlein at the Australian Grand Prix. Wehrlein did not feel fit enough for a complete race distance due to his training deficit[25] as a result of a crash at the 2017 Race of Champions. Giovinazzi finished 12th on his debut.[26] His debut meant he was the first Italian driver to start a Formula One race since Jarno Trulli and Vitantonio Liuzzi at the 2011 Brazilian Grand Prix. Sauber announced that Giovinazzi would again replace Wehrlein for the Chinese Grand Prix, where he crashed out during both qualifying and the race.[27]

Giovinazzi later participated in seven free practice sessions for the Haas F1 Team over the course of the 2017 season.[28] Giovinazzi remained a reserve and test driver for Sauber and Ferrari in 2018. He took part in six free practice sessions for Sauber during the season.

Alfa Romeo (2019–2021)

[edit]

2019

[edit]

Giovinazzi drove for Alfa Romeo during the 2019 season, partnering Kimi Räikkönen and replacing Marcus Ericsson, who became the team's reserve driver.[29][c]

Giovinazzi went eight races without scoring points until he scored his first at the Austrian Grand Prix, finishing 10th.[31] It was the first points finish for an Italian driver in Formula One since Vitantonio Liuzzi finished sixth at the 2010 Korean Grand Prix. The next race in Britain saw his first retirement of the season, after a mechanical problem caused him to spin out into a gravel trap.[32] He crashed out on the last lap of the Belgian Grand Prix, having been running in ninth place. It later emerged that the crash caused Alfa Romeo to consider Giovinazzi's future with the team, with team principal Frédéric Vasseur saying "We had a tough discussion with Antonio, because these kind of things can decide your career. We were thinking about the future."[33] At this stage of the season, Giovinazzi had collected one point, whilst teammate Räikkönen had scored 31.

The second half of the season was more successful for Giovinazzi. He claimed points a week after the Belgian Grand Prix with a ninth-place finish at his first home race in Formula One. On lap 27 of the Singapore Grand Prix, Giovinazzi led the race for four laps after the leaders had pitted. It was the first time he had led a Formula One Grand Prix race in his career. For Alfa Romeo, it was the first time since Andrea de Cesaris led in the 1983 Belgian Grand Prix. Giovinazzi ultimately finished 10th, scoring points for the second consecutive race. At the Brazilian Grand Prix, he achieved his career best finish, crossing the line in sixth place before being promoted to fifth after Lewis Hamilton was penalised. Giovinazzi ended the season in 17th place in the championship with 14 points.

2020

[edit]

Giovinazzi and Räikkönen were retained by Alfa Romeo for the 2020 season.[34]

Giovinazzi scored points at the first race of the season in Austria, qualifying 18th but finishing ninth after nine other cars retired from the race. On lap 11 of the Belgian Grand Prix, Giovinazzi lost control and crashed at turn 14. A stray wheel from his car hit the Williams of George Russell, causing both to retire from the race.[35] He was involved in a high-speed accident at the Tuscan Grand Prix during the safety car restart, in which four cars were eliminated from the race. Two point-scoring finishes came at the Eifel Grand Prix, where he held off the Ferrari of Sebastian Vettel to finish tenth, and at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, where he scored another tenth-placed finish after starting from last on the grid. At the Turkish Grand Prix, Giovinazzi reached the third qualifying session (Q3) for the first time since the 2019 Austrian Grand Prix, qualifying 10th. He went on to retire from the race with gearbox problems.

Giovinazzi ended the season in 17th place in the drivers' championship. He scored four points, the same number as teammate Räikkönen, however Räikkönen placed above Giovinazzi by virtue of having more ninth-placed finishes. Giovinazzi outqualified Räikkönen at nine of the season's 17 races.[36]

2021

[edit]

Giovinazzi and Räikkönen were retained by Alfa Romeo for the 2021 season.[37] Giovinazzi qualified 10th for the Monaco Grand Prix, his first Q3 appearance of the year. He finished the race in 10th place, scoring Alfa Romeo's first point of the season.[38] He would follow this up with eleventh in Azerbaijan.[39][40]

Giovinazzi left Alfa Romeo at the end of the 2021 season,[41] and became reserve driver for Ferrari, sharing duties with Mick Schumacher. As part of his 2021 contract, he also acted as a reserve driver for Ferrari's customer teams, Alfa Romeo and Haas.[42]

Test driver roles (2022–present)

[edit]

In September 2022, Giovinazzi participated in a test at the Fiorano circuit with the Ferrari SF21 together with the Russian-Israeli driver Robert Shwartzman, in order to prepare them both for free practice sessions throughout the season.[43]

Giovinazzi was a test driver for Haas in 2022, and competed in free practice sessions at the Italian and United States Grands Prix for the team,[44] though in the latter session the Italian could only run four laps before crashing and did not take further part in that practice.[45][46] He later apologised to his team for the mistake.[47][48] He took part in a test session with Alpine at the Hungaroring in late September, alongside Nyck de Vries and Jack Doohan.[49][50]

Giovinazzi retained his reserve roles with Ferrari for 2023 alongside his main campaign in the World Endurance Championship.[1]

Sportscar racing career

[edit]

Le Mans Series

[edit]

In 2016, Giovinazzi took part in the Asian Le Mans Series in the LMP2 class alongside Sean Gelael. They entered the final two rounds at Buriram and Sepang, winning both races. Giovinazzi then entered the Silverstone round of the European Le Mans Series alongside Gelael and Mitch Evans for SMP Racing, in which they came 5th.[51]

On 10 January 2023, it was announced that Giovinazzi would drive the #51 Ferrari 499P LMH for Ferrari AF Corse in the 2023 FIA World Endurance Championship alongside drivers James Calado and Alessandro Pier Guidi,[1] with the #50 sister car being made up of drivers Antonio Fuoco, Miguel Molina and Nicklas Nielsen.

Giovinazzi's first victory as a factory Ferrari driver came at the 2023 24 Hours of Le Mans.[52] His performance forms part of a historic win for the Italian marque, as it was 50 years after their last top-class entry in 1973.
