Bio

Francesco Bernoulli grew up in the shadow of the famous Monza race course in Italy where he and his friends would sneak onto the track and race the famous Pista di Alta Velocita bank turn. He was an instant winner on the amateur circuit and soon became an international Formula Racer champion. The ladies love Francesco’s open wheels, youngsters look up to his winning spirit and fellow racers envy his speed. But Francesco’s biggest fan is Francesco himself, as evidenced by his racing number. As the most famous race car in Europe, #1 Francesco is a favorite to win the World Grand Prix, which also makes him Lightning McQueen’s chief rival.

Cars 2

Francesco is the main antagonist, at least on Lightning McQueen's side of the movie, and is considered very self-centered and cocky. He beat Lightning McQueen in the first race, which only made their rivalry grow larger. In the race in Porto Corsa, Lightning won the race, with Francesco second. The race in London was disastrous, as Francesco kept screaming "WHAT IS HAPPENING!", due to the escape of Lightning McQueen on Mater. By the Radiator Springs Grand Prix, the rivalry between the two had settled down a little, and they can be considered "friends" although they do seem to still be major rivals at times.

Cars 2: The Video Game

Francesco re-appears in Cars 2: The Video Game, as a playable character.

Personality

Francesco is cocky and self-centered, as proven on numerous occasions with Lightning McQueen. In Cars 2, Francesco serves as the main antagonist on Lightning's part of the film, and has a similar persona to Chick Hicks.
