FOREWORD BY PINO ALLIEVI, historic journalist of La Gazzetta dello Sport
Over the course of a 60-year career in journalism, specifically in the commercial and sporting automotive field, Renato Ronco has had the opportunity to meet drivers, racing managers and industrialists, as well as people from modest backgrounds. From his encounter – albeit from a distance – with Tazio Nuvolari at the age of 7, a passion was ignited that led him to meet and comment on remarkable events and personalities. A long series of encounters that with this book he has decided to pass on and recount to those interested in exploring a truly fascinating and surprising world.
From Gilles Villeneuve to Ayrton Senna, from Giorgetto Giugiaro to Battista Pininfarina, from Mario Andretti to Michele Alboreto, from Mauro Forghieri to Michael Schumacher, from Renato Dellavalle to Prince Ranieri, from Flavio Briatore to Daniele Audetto. And then other unique encounters such as the one with Angelo D’Arrigo who taught condors to fly and took a Fiat Panda up Everest, to the technician Pamio who went on to lead some 20 engineers in Germany.
This is the multifaceted world that unfolds when reading the pages of this book.
