For the 2018 season, ADSS has become a sponsor of the Ferrari Driver Academy (FDA), opening a new partnership and chapter in the firm’s pursuit of promoting talent globally. The FDA handpicks talented young professional motor racing drivers providing them with holistic training which focuses not only on driving technique but also their physical, mental and personal development.
