History
Enrico Molinaro started off in karting, quickly moving up to the Italian F3 Championship.
He started 2014 well, winning two races in the Italian F3 Championship, but after his team folded was left with nowhere to go. However, Scuderia Alitalia's young driver programme swiftly picked him up and promoted him to F3RWRS, driving car #98 for the rest of the season. He brought with him sponsorship from Peroni and Parmalat.
He was one of three drivers in Scuderia Alitalia's F3RWRS programme in 2014, alongside Alessandro Lucarelli and Gianluigi Pazzini. Towards the end of the year, rumours began circulating that Molinaro would be dropped by the Scuderia Alitalia Giovanile Squadra due to poor performances - while his team-mates had podium finishes to their names, Molinaro had failed to score a single point. These rumours intensified when Hydook Racing signed him up on a trial basis for the 2014 F2RWRS season finale at Indianapolis, with an optional extension for the 2015 season. Despite ultimately retiring, he was running near the front of the field in the race, and this was enough to convince Hydook team principal Anton Bosevic to hire him for the following year.
A change of management followed, being dropped by the Scuderia Alitalia Giovanile Squadra, and becoming a member of Niko Nurminen's management portfolio. His 2015 season in the F2RWRS started off slowly with a retirement and three low-key finishes, but in France he scored his debut points with 7th after a strong drive. However, his performance soon tapered off, with a retirement in Britain. When Hydook Racing dropped to prequalifying from the German round onwards, Molinaro didn't do well and was the slowest of all drivers.
Despite this Nurminen still had some faith in him, and as Nurminen Racing Engineering were granted an entry for the F3RWRS Round of Germany held at the same track, he was picked as the lead driver. However, in both races he was the victim of a number of collisions, finishing them in 24th and 18th respectively.
Back in F2RWRS, Molinaro qualified for the Belgian round, but was anonymous in the race and finished second-last in 14th place. At the next race in Austria he was again much slower than his team mate and failed to prequalify. At his home turf in Italy he again qualified, but lacked pace and finished 13th.
