In Pixar's Cars 2, Francesco Bernoulli represents Italy.
Francesco Bernoulli is an Italian open-wheel race car and Lightning McQueen's principal on-track rival in the World Grand Prix. He is famous for his confidence, flamboyant style, and repeated claims that he is faster than Lightning. His design draws on the visual language of Formula One cars, although Cars 2 uses a fictional racing championship rather than a real Formula One season.
Francesco grew up racing at the Monza circuit, one of Italy's best-known motorsport venues, according to the film's character background. His Italian identity is reflected in his name, colors, and accent. He is voiced by John Turturro in the English version. Francesco is sometimes confused with the film's British spy Finn McMissile, but Francesco is a racer, not a secret agent.
