Motorsports at Silverstone in 2019 Lacorte began his racing career in 2011, driving for Spider Racing Team in the
Italian Superturismo Championship. The following season, he returned to the competition with co-driver Giorgio Sernagiotto, finishing third overall. In 2015, Lacorte began his partnership with Villorba Corse, taking part in the
2015 European Le Mans Series in the LMP3 class. Early in 2019, Cetilar Racing stepped up to full-time entrant status for the
2019–20 FIA World Endurance Championship, fielding their
Dallara P217 in the LMP2 class. The team would finish 12th in class over the course of the season, tallying 72 points. Later that year, the team formed a partnership with
AF Corse, who campaigned
Ferrari's factory entries in the GTE Pro class. That alliance paved the way for Cetilar Racing's switch to the GTE Am category for the
2021 season. Alongside Cetilar Racing's GTE Am entry, Cetilar would provide sponsorship for the
AF Corse GTE Pro entries for the duration of the season. Lacorte ended his LMP2 program due to his disappointment with the stratification plans that would reduce the horsepower and increase the minimum weight of LMP2 competitors, alongside the lack of competitiveness the Dallara chassis offered compared to the
Oreca 07. The team's GTE transition proved immediately fruitful, as they finished on the class podium at
Spa before claiming their first class victory in
WEC competition at
Portimão in June. Ahead of the 2022 season, Cetilar Racing announced a full-season campaign in the GTD class of the
IMSA SportsCar Championship, thereby temporarily ending the team's involvement in the
WEC. While the full-season plan wouldn't pan out, the team remained in the series for the entire Michelin Endurance Cup. At the
12 Hours of Sebring, Lacorte and co-drivers Sernagiotto and
Antonio Fuoco won the GTD class. For 2023, the team confirmed a return to the championship, taking part with Ferrari's new GT3 offering, the
296 GT3.
Sailing Lacorte is an avid sailor, competing with his boat SuperNikka, which began development in 2013. In 2015, the boat competed for the first time at the 2015 edition of the 151Miglia, in which it finished second on corrected time. In 2019, Lacorte was awarded the Italian Owner of the Year award at the
FIV Italian Sailor of the Year awards. In December 2020, Lacorte announced his plans to build the first new generation foil Mini Maxi vessel, dubbed FlyingNikka, set to debut in 2022. It has been given the highest IRC rating in history at 3.866. As of April 2021, Lacorte serves as an officer of the International
Maxi Association, serving as vice president of the Mini Maxi Racer category, the class in which his boat competes. == Personal life ==
