WINTER TRAINING
With the season over, professional drivers will be turning their attention to their winter training, with the intention of developing and refining their skills so that they can hit the ground running in 2025. All drivers have strengths and weaknesses, but before they can take action they need to have a clear understanding of what they are doing well and what needs to improve, and in a prioratised order. To help drivers get a clear understanding of where they are we have developed two half day Detailed Performance Assessments, one focused on technical and mental skills and the other on physical and psychomotor skills. On completion of the assessment drivers will be given clear training goals that will both maintain their strengths and develop their weakness, we can then review these on a monthly basis to ensure on-going development.
Please see links below to the two assessments and if you would like any further information, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Every Tuesday we run Group Pressure Days for up to 20 of our drivers.
Professional supervision - These events are supervised by our in-house Performance Psychologist and are designed to expose drivers to the stress of competition in an environment where they can learn from their mistakes.
The format - Each day involves drivers being split into five teams. After morning practice they compete head-to-head in simulated qualifying and race situations in up to six different car / track combinations, from single seaters and GT’s, through to Touring Cars.
Our Introductory Training Days are a practical opportunity for drivers to spend a whole day finding out about iZone’s training methods FOC.
Morning Schedule - The day starts with our Performance Clinic, Technique Briefing, Simulator Training and an Introduction to Motorsport Fitness.
Afternoon Schedule - The afternoon includes a briefing from our Performance Psychologist, Pressure Inurement Training and a Simulated Qualifying session.
* Please Note: Attendance is subject to availability
1:1 COACHING SESSIONS
1:1 coaching sessions can be booked by the hour and these focus on anything from skill development to simply learning a new track.
Simulator Training
Using bespoke simulation and training technology our coaches employ structured training drills that are designed to create rapid learning as we progressively increase the level of challenge.
TRAINING DRILLS
Intensive training sessions that focus on consistency, adaptability, qualifying and racing.
TRAINING TRACKS
We build our own training tracks to isolate individual driving skills i.e., rotation, braking, steering, judgement and vision.
TRAINING SOFTWARE
Our training software records every aspect of a driver's performance and the driver's own performance analysis.
TRAINING JUDGEMENT
We use eye tracking technology to enhance a driver's ability to judge where to brake, turn and apply power.
ON-GOING INNOVATION
This ensures that drivers are never standing still in their development.
DRIVER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME
iZone's unique Driver Development Programme is a comprehensive academy-based training programme (suitable for amateur and professional alike), that is designed to give our drivers the winning edge in a very competitive driver market.
COACHING
Our coaching is focused on developing drivers technically, mentally and physically so that they are constantly practicing and refining the skills that are needed for them to achieve their goals.
TRAINING 5 DAYS A WEEK
Our Performance Clinic and Group Training activities operate 8 hours a day, 5 days a week.
TRAINING EITHER AT IZONE OR REMOTELY
Depending on the programme chosen, drivers can train with us in person at iZone or remotely from their own homes (subject to having their own simulator), or a combination of both.
Training Community
Every driver that joins our training programme also becomes part of our 'Training Community of Drivers' and this entitles them to take part in a wide range of additional group activities that run both remotely and at iZone's state of the art facilities.
