MEALS ON WHEEL

Sheila Keating meets the Ferrari team chef at a Formula One race.

It’s Grand Prix weekend, and as the stars of Formula One race against the clock to give themselves the best starting position for the big event tomorrow, a different race against time is under way. In miniature makeshift kitchens alongside the track, the team chefs are busy preparing lunch for the mechanics and drivers.

Claudio Degli Esposti is in charge of the cooking for all 60 Ferrari team members, plus their personal weekend guests, who could bring the numbers up to 80. ‘It’s a huge honour to be chef of the Ferrari team,’ he says. ‘I get on really well with the guys, and they make me feel part of things. Also you have the chance to travel all over the world. I don’t see a great deal of the racing,’ he says, laughing, ‘but the TV monitor is on just outside the kitchen, so I know what’s going on.’

The food he prepares for the team is typical of his region in Italy, Emilia Romagna, where the team is based: lasagne, tortelloni, tortellini, ravioli. ‘There are usually two different pastas, two or three kinds of meat, plenty of side dishes,’ he explains. It is left to others to say that the food at Ferrari is the envy of other teams. Degli Esposti simply shrugs his shoulders and smiles.  ‘Italians enjoy eating good food.  It is a way  of life, so even if your focus is on winning the world championship, you must still have good food.’

The drivers, of course, have their own long-term food agenda, tailored to the stresses of competition.

WWith temperatures in the cockpit of a Formula One car sometimes 15 degrees hotter than that outside, it is not unusual for a driver to lose three kilos in fluid during a race, unless he has the right balance of fluid and carbohydrate. Driver Michael Schumacher, with his reputation for formidable fitness, is attended at all  times by Balbir Singh, who looks after his diet and exercise. ‘Before qualifying and racing,  Michael  eats the food prepared by Singh,’ says Degli Esposti, ‘usually something very light, but afterwards he eats the same food as the rest of the team.’

Unlike many of the team kitchens, which contain stacks of tins and jars, Degli Esposti’s has a large fridge filled with different types of cheese, ham, sausages, vegetables and fruit. The emphasis is on simple food prepared carefully. ‘In the beginning it was very difficult, working in a very small kitchen, without a lot of the things a chef is used to. And finding ingredients was a  problem. Now I know the places to shop   at near every track, and I know I can get anything I need. I love to cook fish and meat, but unless I can get the best, I don’t touch it.’

Lunch is spread out as a buffet. On a table at one end of the eating area there are salads of mozzarella and tomatoes, carpaccio topped with truffles, Italian sausages and courgettes, a chicken dish with rosemary

potatoes, and tortellini tossed in a sauce of cheese and cream. ‘I always try to get as much as possible prepared early, so I have only the hot dishes to do at the last minute,’ explains Degli Esposti. The mechanics come in first, followed closely by the drivers. Eddie Irvine heads straight for the truffles, while Schumacher wanders into the kitchen to see what’s cooking.

Lunch over, everyone disperses, full of praise for the chef. Degli Esposti gives a small wave of appreciation and immediately starts clearing away. ‘I have many friends in Italy,’ he says quietly, ‘who think I have the best job in the world.’
