TCR Italy Trophy to be held at Bologna Motorshow

The TCR Italy Trophy will take place tomorrow in the frame of the Bologna Motorshow, an iconic event for Italian motor racing enthusiasts.

The Race of Champions-style race will see eight drivers battle it out in different machines, all running against the clock in head-to-head challenges.

The Giacon brothers, with series regular Kevin and one-off participant Jonathan, will both drive SEAT León TCRs entered by Gruppo Piloti Forlivesi. Another couple of brothers, the Altoès, will be on track. Italian TCS championship runner-up Giovanni will drive a Volkswagen Golf GTI TCR, whereas International Series regular Giacomo will be behind the wheel of an Audi RS 3 LMS.

Multiple Abarth one-make-series champion Cosimo Barberini will drive a NOS Racing Golf, while Alessandro Mazzolini and Romy Dall’Antonia will both drive a SEAT, the latter having taken part in last year’s edition of TCR Italy.

Maurizio Possumato will drive a Peugeot 308 Mi16 from the TCT class, the experienced driver having most recently done outings in the Italian Entry Cup.
