“We take the helm of our city’s rally with enthusiasm – declared Delfino La Delfa – a well-known Nisseno entrepreneur, we want to relaunch this event and to do this we have given an input for change, choosing new routes and not only have we tried to modernize the image of the race also with the help of many enthusiasts like us and many pilots, including Italian ones, who acted as commercials with short videos, but we have many ideas that we will gradually put into practice. The agreement with the local administrations was excellent, in fact beyond the municipality of Caltanissetta there is keen interest from San Cataldo and Santa Caterina Villarmosa, which we involved in the event. The Caltanissetta Automobile Club as well as the Aci Sport Regional Delegation will give us great and substantial support” -.
