MINARDI NAME IN GP MASTERS WITH CAFFI

minardimontreal
in ForzaMinardi.com Forum
Has anybody got more news on this? There is interview with Caffi about him participating in Masters. He does mention the Minardi name, but it appears in title.

  • bladerunner
    I tried to find some info on 2006 races:

    http://www.italiaracing.net/news.asp?id=2652&cat=F3000ITA&nome=EURO_3000_CHAMPIONSHIP&cart=f3000_italia

    It says that there is a double championship with races in both Italy and Europe.

    The Italian races will be televised, there's a TV contract unfortunately it doesn't mention the station.

    I couldn't find an "official" F3000 page for 2006...anybody with more luck ?

    Thanks for links :)

    Spot on Emmett. Somebody does need to make it to one of these events, and, they need take "the banner" with them.

    Doesn't matter if any cameras see it, the team needs to see it.

    Where's Salvo, we need an interview with GCM.

  • Minardus
    In English (from F1racing.net):


    In 2006 the Minardi name won't be gone from the racing tracks. In the Euro 3000 series Minardi will cooperate with the Italian team 'Italian GP Racing' under the name 'Minardi Team by GP Racing'.

    Gian Carlo Minardi said after signing the partnership with 'GP Racing': "I will start a new adventure today together with GP Racing. Our adventure will start in March at Monza where we hope to put on a good performance."

    I came across this quote on ITV:

    Other than the use of his name, Minardi will initially have minimal input in the operation.

    But the Italian hinted to Gazzetto dello Sport that this could change.

    "It'll keep the name alive on the track but I am not saying that’s where it ends," he said.

    "I don’t have any involvement in GP Racing but it could become an operating base."

    So this may not be as good as it seemed at first but there seems to be plenty of room to grow..

    Would this "base" mean a move up north for GCM? They also talk about a Venitian driver. Venitian? This isn't boat racing....hardy har har.

    Anyway - any word back from your email RJ - none here but mine was in English.

    FORZA

    It seems that now following the results and performances of Minardi will be harder than ever; even knowing the pilots identity. But it'll be quite like in a romantic era: without possibility of watching the races on tv, making enquiries to know the results...

    And again a black (or at least dark blue) and yellow car with the Minardi name and logo on it. What else can we ask for, knowing that before all this news, Minardi didn't exist anymore.

    FORZA

    Maybe just a base untill he can buy back Faenza, and I believe the team is based in the region that Venice is in, so that is why they are talking about a Venitian driver. A Minardi racing boat would be cool though, not quite GCM's expertise, but still cool.

    grandprix.com is reporting that Minardi Team by GP Racing will be running Fabrizio Del Monte and Juan Caceres in the Euro 3000 series this season. Though it could be possible that they just went to GP Racing's site and saw who they had last season and assumed no changes.

    silence so far...
  • siriwan
    Can anyone precise in what step of the motor racing "stairway" is placed the Euro 3000? I guess it's just under F1, GP2 and World Series. Has something in common with the old F300 where Alonso and Webber among others took part?

    BTW, before the season starts the 19 of March in Monza, there'll be collective tests on 16-17 february in Misano.
  • viges
    They are old F3000 cars. I would place it below Euro and Brit F3. On a par with Formula Renault. The lower leagues are very confused but I think Massa came from F3000 in Italy.
  • forzaminardi
    Last year's pole time at Monza for F3000 was 1:39.265 while Kovalainen did it in 1:33.725 in a GP2
  • Minardus
    Midfebruary test in Misano????

    That will be COLD !!!!!:rolleyes:
  • bouc
    www.italiaracing.net is reporting that the TV coverage for 2006 season will be on: RAI DUE, RAI Sport Satellite, Sky, Sportitalia, Odeon, La 7.
    I hope not 2 weeks after the race at 2:00 am!!!

    Soon the official site will be www.eurotremila.com.

    (I'm not sure to have used english :spank: )
  • siriwan
    I've just read in GP Racing website that Giovanni Minardi worked for the team the last season, maybe this is the connection that GCM chose to join with.
  • salvo
    good stuff, bouc, we'll have the chance to see the races.

    I'm quit busy at the moment, but we have to work on this GCM's interview in the next weeks, promise
  • salvo
