The Race is delighted to announce its class-leading YouTube channel is now available in Italian.

Since launching in February 2020, The Race has enjoyed spectacular success on YouTube, accumulating 1.1million subscribers and over 15m monthly views. This led to the creation of Spanish and Portuguese language versions, and now, Italian.

The Race has partnered with renowned voice of Italian motorsport Roberto Boccafogli, bilingual journalist and comms expert Anthony Peacock and talented editor Dino Del Mancino to bring to life The Race's fabulous content in authentic Italian, as well as creating bespoke content for the local market.

Andrew van de Burgt, The Race CEO and founder said: "Italy is one of the traditional homes of motorsport. Monza; Ferrari; Pirelli are names everyone who loves racing are instantly familiar with. The arrival of Lewis Hamilton at Ferrari and the exciting addition of Kimi Antonelli at Mercedes meant that expanding our coverage into Italian was a logical decision.

"I've known Roberto and Anthony for many years, and have absolute confidence that they are the right people to take the core values of The Race and adapt them to a passionate and knowledgeable Italian audience."

Roberto Boccafogli commented: "The Race grants worldwide viewers an incredibly rich offering in terms of news, comments, and in-depth analysis from behind the scenes. After nearly 40 years of media experience in all sorts of motorsport, I'm thrilled to take part in this new adventure."

Anthony Peacock added: "Italy, along with the UK, is the spiritual home of racing, so it's an absolute pleasure to bring the passion we all share as friends and colleagues to our amazing Italian audience. We look forward to growing our following as an integral part of the motorsport scene within Italy."

The international versions of The Race's YouTube output have been a tremendous success. With Diego Meija at the helm, the Spanish language version has over 150k subscribers and more than 2m views a month, while in Portuguese Cassio Politi and Lito Cavalcanti have amassed over 40k followers and 1m views a month and with the arrival of Gabriel Bortoleto on the 2025 grid, this is sure to grow rapidly.
