I've never heard anything about Finnish driver training - if I were naming a well known exception it would be Germany.

There was also an interesting Top Gear segment where Mika Hakkinen gave James May a racing lesson[1]. In it they talked about why Finns seem to do so much better than people from other countries in motor racing. A bit of it was to do with their driver training.

A short presentation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnYGhAXbDsM I'm pretty sure there are better films about Finnish courses somewhere.

I've heard Austria also cares about training for winter conditions.
