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.

Driver Development Silverstone | iZone Performance

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.

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.

OUR VALUES

We introduce our drivers to 'the iZone Way':

  • Understanding and adopting the mindfulness and acceptance based approach in everything we do.

  • We instill our core behaviours and standards to allow you to be and perform at your best.

This enables us to build a high performance culture through our core training principles and values

  1. Joy - Enjoy the experience and the journey.

  2. Mindfulness - Stay in the present & focus on the process.

  3. Professionalism - Show how much you care. Train like you compete.

  4. Learning -  The more you engage the more you get out of this program. Take responsibility for your own learning.

  5. Accountability - Do what you say you're going to do and take ownership of your journey and actions.
