Recovery Support Program for Young Talent

The Recovery Support Program by Racing for Dilano offers drivers up to 21 years old a strategic and efficient path to a strong comeback. The program is fully tailored to the driver’s specific injury and situation, combining medical expertise with sport-specific training to ensure no valuable time is lost. A multidisciplinary team of specialists – including sports doctors, physiotherapists, coaches, and sports professionals – guides the driver throughout the entire recovery process.

Personal Introduction & Individual Recovery Plan

A thorough assessment forms the foundation for a successful recovery:

• Personal Consultation:
  Together with the driver, parents, and/or racing team, we define needs and goals.
• Post-Acute Recovery Phase:
  In the immediate aftermath of an accident or surgery, physical rest is crucial. In consultation with the attending physician, the recovery process is aligned early on, allowing for optimal sports physiotherapy.
• Early Contact Recommended:
  We advise parents or racing teams to reach out during hospitalization to ensure a seamless transition into recovery.
• Team Formation:
  A local network of professionals is assembled. If specialists are already involved, they are integrated into the process.
