Azzurro
The Organization
Azzurro Racing Group was founded in 2026 by Nicolas Fiugu and co-founders K. Gilje & T. Bos. What began as a small group of drivers has grown into a structured multi-platform organisation competing in Gran Turismo 7, iRacing and Le Mans Ultimate.
WHO WE ARE
A racing group, built properly.
Azzurro is organised around two clear tiers: Academy and Pro. We compete across Gran Turismo 7, iRacing and Le Mans Ultimate. The Academy is for drivers who want to develop inside a structured team environment. The Pro Team is the highest competitive level we enter, reserved for those who consistently perform at the front.
From the beginning the team has been built around clear standards, clean racing, and giving drivers a proper place to improve. Almost every Azzurro livery has been created by T. Bos, co-founder of the team, together with livery designer Alejandro Serna, which has given the organisation a strong and recognisable visual identity across all three platforms.
We deliberately keep the team focused. Structure, standards, and a real pathway from Academy to Pro matter more to us than simply growing in size.
