The Foresti Trophy was a real test race for the Promotor Classic team standard bearers who warmed up their engines for the important race scheduled for next week valid for the Italian Great Events Championship by ACI Sport “Milan-Sanremo Cup “.
The Fontanella-Covelli crews performed well in 9th place overall on a Lancia Lambda and Soldo-Messina in 39th place on an Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider.
Too bad for a delay at the finish line for the Patron-Patron crew on Fiat 514 MM who finished in 50th place after being in the top positions in the first part of the race and for the Steve Clark-Formilan crew on Salmons Gs8 forced to stay in the rear due to some mechanical problems.
“It was a wonderful race – commented Gianmario Fontanella – many kilometers and many pipes done non-stop in just one day of competition, an excellent general rehearsal in view of the start of the Milan-Sanremo Cup from the Monza racetrack on Thursday ”.
