SPECTACULAR ACTION AT AUTODROMO NAZIONALE MONZA DURING ACI RACING WEEKEND

The large motorsport audience showed up in full force, despite the intense heat in Brianza, filling the grandstands and paddock of the Autodromo Nazionale Monza. Their enthusiasm was rewarded with 12 spectacular races, full of twists and turns, culminating in the 3-Hour race of the Italian GT Endurance Championship, won by the Beretta-Frassineti-Testa crew driving the Lamborghini of VSR.

There were three different winners in the action-packed races of the Italian F4 Championship, which featured as many as 40 single-seaters on the grid. Victories went to Sebastian Wheldon, Kean Nakamura-Berta, and Newman Chi, who claimed his first win of the season. In TCR Italy, Matteo Poloni and Nicola Baldan took wins among the sequential cars, while Eric Brigliadori scored a double victory in the DSG class, finishing ahead of his teammate Matteo Roccadelli in both races.

Simone Bianco further extended his lead in the Italian Sports Prototypes Championship after winning Race 1, while Giacomo Maman secured his first career victory in Race 2. Also taking to the Monza track over the weekend was the FIA TCR World Tour, where Norbert Michelisz and Aurélien Comte took the wins.

The large crowd particularly appreciated the open paddock and the opportunity to step onto the starting grid of the 3-Hour Italian GT Endurance Championship race, where they could get a close look at the cars. Equally well-received was the Meet & Greet in the Fanzone on Saturday, where fans got the chance to meet some of the stars of the FIA TCR World Tour and TCR Italy.
