Put lamborghini’s advanced four-wheel drive setup to the test while gliding across a purpose-built track in the italian Alps. The raging Bull’s Winter Accademia for February 2016 combined the adrenaline of exploring the high-performance range, from the Huracán lP 610-4 to the Avendator lP 700-4, with essential skills to handle any road conditions. This year, lamborghini offered two programmes for enthusiasts, including the one-day corso intensivo and the three-night, two-day corso Avanzato. After developing dynamic driving techniques on day one, using the intensivo programme as a foundation, the second day introduces additional one-on-one coaching for a greater focus on drifting and masterful handling at high speeds. lamborghini has also run its Winter Accademia in destinations such as nagano, pictured here, swapping italian boutique hospitality for Japanese omotenashi without losing any of the exhilaration.
