The president of ACI Italia is also celebrating
Mameli’s anthem was performed twice yesterday in Monk. Thanks to Gabriele Minì, winner in the F3 Feature Race (the Palermo native repeated his 2023 success in the race with full points without reversing the starting grid) and Ferrari, which won for the tenth time in the Principality with the host Charles Leclerc who broke free after 40 races of abstinence.
A Sunday therefore worth remembering for Italian motor racing, with the tricolor as the great protagonist in the prestigious setting of Monaco. These are the words of the president of the Automobile Club of Italy, Angelo Sticchi Damiani: “I want to congratulate Ferrari and Charles Leclerc for the victory in Monte Carlo, the driver’s home race and also the most insidious and demanding of the Formula 1 World Championship. Only a week ago, during the awards ceremony on the podium in Imola, I had direct testimony to the affection that Italian fans have for Leclerc. As I had the opportunity to say at the end of the Made in Italy and Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix, for our fans Ferrari is more than a passion, it is a faith. This success for Leclerc, which adds to that achieved in Australia by Carlos Sainz, who was splendid third at the finish line today, has the merit of keeping the championship alive, of giving flavor to the World Championship.”
“The hope is that the season continues like this and that the Maranello company can give us further satisfaction. In this regard, I hope that Ferrari fans will be able to experience equally exciting and joyful days at the Italian Grand Prix in September in an Autodromo Nazionale Monza which is adapting to the standards required by Formula 1. For our movement this is a Sunday to remember also for the success achieved in Formula 3 by Gabriele Minia young driver that ACI supports and in whom we believe a lot” concluded Sticchi Damiani.
