Welcome to Forzaminardi.com, a website dedicated to the Minardi Formula 1 team, which raced at the pinnacle of motorsport from 1985 until 2005. In its 20-year history, the team only scored 38 points and never managed to climb the podium. Nevertheless, Minardi had a loyal following all over the world because of the new talent that it brought to the sport -think of Fernando Alonso, Giancarlo Fisichella, Jarno Trulli and Mark Webber - and the perennial fighting spirit it showed in the face of overwhelming competition and a shoestring budget.
