Vitantonio Liuzzi's love for Formula 1 is unmatched and infectious; his love story with Formula 1 is next to none. Tonio went from being World Karting Champ one year to making his Formula 1 debut in the next; and beating the then 4-times Formula 1 World Champion Michael Schumacher in go-karts.

Tonio proudly calls himself the "start up" driver for Formula 1 teams after racing with "start ups" Red Bull Racing, Force India and HRT. In this episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, Tonio shares his journey through Formula 1, the highs-lows and why he is so proud of his appointment as FIA's Driver Steward.

For the geeks, Tonio's story on how the f-duct ruined his career in the sport is one definitely worth listening to!
