Research notes
Publicly listed in the Team Members section of the FIA Formula 2 official team page;
the page's 2026 technicalDirector field is still misspelled as Paolo Angeilella. The FIA Formula 3 official MP Motorsport page, Formula Scout, and LinkedIn all use Paolo Angilella, and this table standardizes on the correct spelling. Paolo Angilella is a veteran Italian single-seater engineer, about 50 years old, residing in Veneto/Vicenza. He served for a long time at Prema as a FIA European F3 race engineer, leading Felix Rosenqvist (2015) and Mick Schumacher (2018) to F3 drivers' championships, and served as engineer for Lukas Dunner in 2020. At the invitation of MP Team Principal Dorsman in late 2019, he joined MP as Technical Director for both F2 and F3, leading a reform of the technical system and methodology, and was the key driving force behind MP's rise to become a top F2 team within three years (Drugovich's 2022 title). The FIA F2 2026 page still contains the Paolo Angeilella spelling error;
this table standardizes on the Paolo Angilella spelling used by FIA F3, Formula Scout, and LinkedIn. The FIA Formula 2 2026 page's technicalDirector field is still misspelled as Paolo Angeilella;
the FIA Formula 3 official MP Motorsport page, Formula Scout, and LinkedIn all use Paolo Angilella. This LinkedIn profile is for a Paolo Angilella from Pavia, Italy, listing prior studies at the University Institute of Motor Sciences in Pavia (Istituto Universitario di Scienze Motorie), matching the media-reported background of him residing in Veneto/Vicenza, Italy, and being about 50 years old;
however, the profile information is extremely sparse and lists no employment, hence medium confidence.
