THE ROYAL AUTOMOBILE CLUB OF JORDAN (RACJ) Continuation of a young driver training programme designed to detect racing talent for the future.
In 2018 the Royal Automobile Club of Jordan (RACJ) launched a young driver training programme to improve the level of skill among emerging racers and to support them in the development of their motor sport careers. With a maximum 30 participants the programme would follow the model of the successful programme held in Lebanon with trainers being provided by the Automobile and Touring Club du Liban (ATCL). Following a successful first edition of the programme the RACJ intended to run the initiative for a second time in 2019. Thirty-six participants would be chosen and once again the Jordanian ASN would work with the ATCL to deliver a broad curriculum designed to give the young drivers the tools they need to progress their careers in motor sport. The top drivers in the programme would also have the opportunity to test an F4 car and would have a chance to test at the Renault F1 Academy.
