Secondary education in Italy reached a historic milestone as Monza expanded its identity beyond a traditional motorsport temple to become a permanent educational laboratory for students.
Located just minutes away from the famous racing circuit, Collegio Villoresi officially integrated a professional driving simulator featuring iRacing, Assetto Corsa, and real telemetry directly into a mathematics and physics classroom.
This pioneering educational initiative, named Sim Racing at School, aims to transform abstract formulas and spatial functions into tangible experiences backed by real tire grip and cornering dynamics.

ACI President Geronimo La Russa emphasized that the project embraces digital humanism and responsible mobility by communicating in the language of today's younger generation.
School rector don Giorgio Greco added that technology must be properly governed rather than passively endured, ensuring human consciousness remains at the core of every decision made.
Conceived by headmaster Danilo Piazza, the program leverages student passion for motorsport to foster critical thinking, teamwork, and a deeper appreciation for applied physics.
Backed by ACI sponsorship and contributions from the Motorsport Technical School in Lesmo, students can now analyze lateral acceleration data and energy consumption immediately after completing a virtual lap.
