Malossi heads back to class (with Delivery at School)

A class usually catches a bus to the factory, snaps a few photos, and leaves with a gadget and the faint scent of oil. End of story. We have decided to do things the opposite way round.

On 19th and 20th March 2026, Henry Favre and Andrea Guzzon packed up their expertise, experience, and racing scooters to head straight to the IPIA in Sassari. This vocational school, with around 350 students, has spent years bridging the gap between classroom learning and the manufacturing world. This marked the launch of Malossi Delivery at School, the format where we don’t wait for students to come to us; we go to them.

How did Delivery at School come to life?

The idea sparked from Henry’s own experience: “Back in school, no company ever showed up to actually show us the ropes. My friends and I learnt mechanics the hard way, by tearing through fields, wrecking our mopeds, and figuring out how to patch them up on a shoestring budget. It was all trial and error fueled by pure curiosity. Now that I’m part of this industry, I want to give something back, and Malossi is giving me the platform to make that happen.

In the classroom yet without any class tests

The students tried to keep it formal, automatically addressing Guzz and Favre with the usual respect reserved for teachers. However, the ground rules were set immediately: Guzz and Henry weren’t there to hand out marks or to judge anyone. They visit Italian classrooms for one reason only, to show everyone how a racing scooter actually works. The sessions also covered unexpected breakdowns that happen both on the road and on the track, and how to fix them. After all, who better than these two could teach how to handle mechanical mishaps?

Whether it’s a flat tyre or a complex mechanical failure, nothing rattles these two. Guzz, a rider and trainer in the Trofei Malossi races, is a master of the track, while Favre has dealt with every trick the desert could throw at him.  For the students, Henry and Andrea are more than “just mechanics”; they are living proof that the road from the classroom to a career is far from being a short, straight line. It is a personal journey that pays off in ways you can’t possibly imagine. They show that even if traditional studying isn’t your thing, having a real passion and the drive to work hard can take you exactly where you want to go.

Why bring Malossi Delivery to the classroom?

We firmly believe the future of racing mechanics is being built right now in schools. This is the perfect age for students to explore their passions and decide whether to chase them or let them go. We basically want to give young people the tools to figure out what they want to be when they grow up.

The “Malossi Delivery at School” project is our investment in people, a format that brings the world of competitive racing directly to where future technicians are being trained. There is no better place to do this than in the Italian classrooms. Sassari was just the first stop, and seeing the students’ excitement confirmed we are definitely on the right track.
