Bianca’s debut at Stella Alpina

I participated in the thirty-eighth edition of Stella Alpina with a special co-driver: my grand daughter Bianca.

At her very first meeting, Bianca was immediately enthusiastic when I asked her to join me in the three days in the Dolomites, then testing herself with great precision both in reading the road book and in the 70 timed trials.

The rally, which I hadn’t taken part in for years, lived up to the highest expectations: high-level cars (including some very prestigious “older” ones), breathtaking views, superb hospitality, and the comfort of meeting so many young crews, a sign that the combination of oldtimer and “young driver” is possible.

The moment of the awards ceremony saw the presence of the Hon. Matteo Salvini, who expressed his closeness to the world of historic cars and underlined the historical value of collecting.

Thanks to the Scuderia Trentina Storica, to the ASI – in the persons of the president Alberto Scuro, the vice-president Ugo Gambardella and the communication manager Felice Graziani – to Gianni Tesauro, brilliant speaker of the event, and to the Adrenaline 24h team (and thanks also to my Jaguar E Type, a reliable companion on Alpine hairpin bends).
