DRIVER PERFORMANCE
WHAT FDP DOES
TWO PILLARS. ONE PURPOSE.
Focus Driver Performance is built around two connected pillars: developing the driver behind the wheel through professional simulator coaching, and developing the person behind the driver through human performance. By bringing both together, we help drivers build speed, consistency and the ability to perform when it matters.We develop performance both behind the wheel and beyond it, combining professional simulator coaching with human performance training.
01 / DRIVER COACHING
Our professional simulators give drivers a controlled environment to practise the demands of real racing. With detailed car and circuit models, telemetry analysis and one-to-one coaching, we work on driving technique, braking, racecraft, consistency and decision-making. Sessions are designed to turn feedback into purposeful practice that transfers to the circuit.Professional simulators recreate the challenges of racing. With expert coaching and telemetry, drivers practise technique, racecraft and consistency before heading to the circuit.
02 / HUMAN PERFORMANCE
Great driving depends on more than what happens in the cockpit. Our human performance work develops the physical and mental qualities that support it: cognitive training for attention and reaction, strength and conditioning for the demands of racing, heat preparation, nutrition, and performance psychology. Together, these areas help drivers arrive better prepared, manage fatigue and maintain focus under pressure.Human performance covers cognitive skills, strength and fitness, heat preparation, nutrition and psychology — helping drivers stay prepared, focused and resilient under pressure.
PROFESSIONAL RACE SIMULATORS
THE CLOSEST THING TO RACE DAY.

PROFESSIONAL SIMULATOR COACHING
PRACTICE WITH PURPOSE.
The simulator gives drivers a setting in which to examine decisions, repeat key moments and work deliberately on their driving. Coaching links what the driver feels to what can be observed and discussed.Purposeful simulator coaching, racecraft and data-led feedback for every session.
RACECRAFT & BRAKING
Work through positioning, judgement and braking choices, then revisit the moments that affect the quality of a lap or an on-track decision.
CONSISTENCY & RELEVANCE
Repeatability is part of the work. Coaching can use custom car and track models to make practice more relevant to the driver’s context.
FEEDBACK INTO PRACTICE
Feedback helps turn each session into deliberate practice: identify a priority, work on it, and carry that learning into the next cycle.
MOTORSPORT PHYSICAL TRAINING
PREPARE FOR THE DEMANDS OF DRIVING.
Physical preparation is not separate from performance in the car. Motorsport-specific strength and conditioning work supports a driver’s ability to meet the physical demands of driving.Motorsport-specific strength, conditioning and preparation for the demands of driving.
PURPOSE-BUILT PREPARATION
Assessments help identify where to begin. From there, preparation can address strength, conditioning and heat preparation as relevant to the driver, with the work considered alongside their wider development.
COGNITIVE TRAINING
TRAIN WHAT YOU NOTICE.
Driving asks the mind to take in information, select what matters and respond while the situation keeps moving. Cognitive training creates space to work on those demands deliberately.Develop the skills behind fast decisions: attention, memory, reaction and visual tracking.
With Focus App on Apple Vision Pro, drivers can explore work involving reaction, visual scanning, attention, memory and tracking. It is one part of the broader preparation conversation, not a substitute for driving or coaching.Focus App on Apple Vision Pro provides cognitive training for drivers.
