Encyclopedic overview
Giancarlo "Giano" Fisichella ( Italian pronunciation: [dʒaŋˈkarlo fiziˈkɛlla]; born 14 January 1973), nicknamed Fisico and Fisi, is an Italian racing driver and motorsport executive who competed in Formula One from 1996 to 2009. Fisichella won three Formula One Grands Prix across 14 seasons.
Born and raised in Rome, Fisichella is a member of the noble Fisichella family of Sicily. After starting his career in kart racing, he progressed to Italian Formula Three in 1992, winning the title in 1994 with RC Motorsport, as well as the Monaco F3 Grand Prix. Following a season in the Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft, Fisichella graduated to Formula One with Minardi in 1996, debuting at the Australian Grand Prix. He moved to Jordan for 1997, achieving his maiden podium finishes at the Canadian and Belgian Grands Prix. He joined Benetton in 1998 with multiple further podiums, as well as his maiden pole position at the Austrian Grand Prix. Several podiums followed across his remaining three seasons at Enstone: one in 1999, three in 2000—where he finished sixth in the World Drivers' Championship—and one in 2001.
