CAN Bus
Masterclass

This is the most direct and practical path to mastering the CAN Bus protocol and using that knowledge to unlock real performance gains — on road cars and race vehicles alike.

Designed by Henrique Cappello, an engineer with 17 years of international experience across Formula 1, Formula E, F4, and European regional championships, this course is built on the most comprehensive technical reference on CAN Bus applied to motorsport.

It bridges rigorous theory with hands-on practice, giving you the tools and confidence to work with real vehicle data from day one. What you'll learn:
✅ CAN architecture, physical layer, bits, bytes, hex, message structure, arbitration & endianness
✅ Reading, building, and decoding CAN messages using DBC files
✅ Industry tools: PCAN-View, CANdb++, Kvaser Database Editor, SavvyCAN & CANalyzer
✅ Reverse engineering techniques to discover and decode unknown signals
✅ Torque control strategies, braking optimisation & anti-lock system analysis
✅Lap time analysis and real-time data interpretation for on-track performance
✅ Tools and workflows used by professional motorsport teams

Every concept is grounded in real examples from race car development, test benches, simulators, and competition environments — so you're not just learning a protocol, you're learning how to use data to go faster. Who is this for? Engineers, vehicle preparers, technicians, and serious enthusiasts who want to move beyond the basics and use real CAN data to generate measurable performance results.

🟢 Beginner friendly — no prior CAN Bus experience required
🟢 Step-by-step structure, from fundamentals to advanced applications
🟢 Built on real motorsport experience at the highest levels of the sport 🔥

What Our Clients Say

TESTIMONIALS
"This is an essential, highly specialized technical manual aimed at performance engineers and students of competitive design (such as Formula SAE).

The work stands out for focusing on the practical application of the CANBus protocol specifically in motorsport, providing practical examples endorsed by Henrique's extensive experience on the track, teaching in practice how to integrate modules (ECUs), optimize telemetry systems, and perform quick diagnostics in the pits.

In short, it is indispensable reading for anyone seeking to go further, using data analysis to extract maximum performance and reliability from racing cars on the track.."

Fabio Delatore

xEV Specialist | Engineer Professor | FIA Scrutineer
"Congratulations on the work! It looks very complete. There was not a lot of 'motorsport' related information available so far on this subject (CANBus), so your book fills this gap conveniently."

Jorge Segers

Lead Race Engineer - AF Corse (WEC)
"I think Henrique Cappello’s book titled “CAN Bus for Automotive Engineering and Motorsport Applications” is perfect to understand how CAN Bus works in a DIL Simulator. He discusses the basics of CAN but goes into detail on how it is used to improve overall vehicle performance in F1, Formula E, Le Mans, etc. Quite simply put, this is one of the best books worth the money, and I couldn't recommend it enough."

Vaibhav Aatreya

Race Engine Test & Calibration Engineer  - Honda Racing F1 (Red Bull F1)
"The precision and real-world expertise provided are unmatched. Their F1-level insights have completely transformed our vehicle dynamics strategy. A true partner in motorsport engineering excellence."

Diego Ferraz de Lara

System Engineer - GT3 Team
If you are wanting to learn the fundamentals of vehicle CAN Bus systems this is a good course to start with.

The course material is well organized and easy to follow.
I am subscribed to see what reverse engineering secrets may be revealed by the instructor, Henrique Cappello.

I learned a lot of this the hard way. Henrique did as well apparently but he leveraged his skills into a motorsports career.

May we all be so fortunate and may the wise decide to take the well travelled path with this course.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need prior CAN Bus experience to take this course?

No. This course was designed to take you from zero to confident. We start with the absolute fundamentals — what a bus is, how bits and bytes work, how messages are structured — and build up to advanced topics like reverse engineering and DBC file creation. Whether you're a student, a junior technician, or a senior engineer who never had formal CAN training, this course meets you where you are.

I already work with CAN Bus. Is this course too basic for me?

Unlikely. Most engineers who "work with CAN" are using pre-configured tools without truly understanding what happens at the protocol level. This course covers arbitration logic, endianness, signal encoding, DBC architecture, and real reverse engineering workflows — topics that even experienced engineers rarely master. If you can explain how a CAN frame is arbitrated at the bit level and build a DBC file from a raw bus capture, then yes, you may already know this. If not, you will learn something valuable.

How long do I have access to the course materials?

Lifetime. Once you enroll, you have permanent access to all video lessons, downloadable resources, DBC files, and future updates. There is no subscription, no expiration, and no recurring fee.

What is included in the $197 launch price?

Everything. The full 9-module video course ($297 value), the CAN Bus technical book in hardcover shipped to your address ($97 value), the CAN Decoder Software + DBC Creator ($165 value), DBC files for production road cars, access to the Motorsport Nation Telegram community, an industry-recognized certificate, and lifetime access. The first 100 students also receive exclusive bonus DBC files from FIA Formula 4, top motorsport series, and an F1 CAN Bus analysis template.

Is the book a physical copy or digital?

Physical hardcover, shipped internationally to your address. The book is the same title available on Amazon KDP with 1,700+ readers. It is included at no extra cost in your enrollment — you only pay the course price.

What software do I need? Do I need to buy hardware?

The course teaches you how to use industry-standard software tools including PCAN-View, CANdb++, and Kvaser Database Editor. These tools have free versions available for download.
You do NOT need to purchase any CAN hardware to complete the course — all practical demonstrations are shown on screen with real data. However, if you already have a PEAK or Kvaser interface, you will be able to follow along with your own setup.

Will this course help me get a job in motorsport?

This course gives you a skill set that is actively sought by Formula 1 teams, IndyCar teams, Formula E manufacturers, GT programs, and OEM engineering departments.
CAN Bus expertise is one of the most in-demand and least formally taught skills in the industry.
Completing this course with the certificate gives you a concrete credential to add to your CV and LinkedIn.
Several of our students have used this knowledge to transition into professional motorsport roles.

What if the course is not what I expected?

You are covered by a 7-day money-back guarantee (or until the book ships, whichever comes first). If you go through the material and feel it does not deliver what was promised, contact us and we will refund you in full. No questions, no friction.

How is this different from free CAN Bus content on YouTube?

YouTube videos give you fragments — a 10-minute overview here, a disconnected tutorial there. This course gives you a structured, progressive learning path built by an engineer with 17+ years of hands-on experience in Formula 1, Formula E, and international motorsport. Every module builds on the previous one. Every example comes from real racing applications. And you get tools, files, and a community that YouTube cannot provide.

Can my company or team purchase multiple seats?

Yes. Contact us directly at the email below for team pricing and volume discounts. We offer special rates for racing teams, engineering departments, and educational institutions.
