THOROLD, Ont., Canada – After a season of firsts, challenges and continued development, Leonardo Serravalle is ready to put everything he has learned during his rookie USF Juniors Presented by Continental championship campaign to the test as the series heads to Road America this weekend for its season finale.
The Canadian enters the final weekend with three races still to run, providing one last opportunity to turn a full season of experience into results behind the wheel of his Zanella Racing entry.
Road America will offer Serravalle a familiar setting to close out the year. His experience at the 4.014-mile Wisconsin circuit extends beyond the USF Juniors championship, having tested at the track earlier this season as well as participating in the USF2000 event at Road America in June. The additional track time has allowed Serravalle to learn the circuit in multiple cars and conditions, giving him a deeper understanding of its long straights, fast corners, elevation changes and technical sections.
“This weekend is really about taking everything we've learned this year and putting it all together,” said Serravalle. “There have been so many new experiences for me throughout this rookie season, and every weekend has taught me something different. Coming back to Road America is exciting because I've already spent quite a bit of time here between the USF Juniors test and the USF2000 weekend in June. Hopefully we can use all of that experience to put together three strong races and finish the season the right way.”
With the final checkered flag of the season approaching, Serravalle will have three opportunities to cap his rookie campaign with a strong performance and carry the lessons from 2026 into the next chapter of his racing career.
The finale will pack plenty of action into the final days of the championship. Testing and practice will get underway Thursday, followed by qualifying and the opening race of the weekend on Friday. Saturday will bring a doubleheader, with Races 2 and 3 completing the 2026 USF Juniors season. Fans can follow Serravalle and the rest of the USF Juniors field throughout the weekend, with qualifying and all three races available live at usfjuniors.com/results/live-timing.
