Moto3: Team Italia FMI San Carlo presented

Team Italia FMI San Carlo was presented today and will see Romano Fenati (last year's winner of the Jerez Grand Prix and second on his debut in the world championship at the Qatar Grand Prix) and Francesco "Pecco" Bagnaia, both in riding a Honda FTR. The well-known Milanese brand will be the Title sponsor of Team Italia not only in Moto3 but also in the Stock 3 class European Championship. In addition to being present on the fairings of Romano Fenati, Francesco Bagnaia, Franco Morbidelli and Alessandro Nocco, San Carlo will support the “Talenti” project Azzurri” with the IMF. The support will be implemented with scholarships reserved for riders of the CIV, the Italian Speed ​​Championship, and PreGP, and contributing to a reduction in transversal registration costs for all participants in the MiniGP and Minimoto Championships.

Riccardo Russo, Nicolò Bulega, Luca Marini, Tony Arbolino, Bruno Ieraci, Stefano Manzi and Edoardo Sintoni: these are the protagonists of the Talenti Azzurri project, strongly desired by the IMF and supported by San Carlo. The help will be implemented with scholarships reserved for pilots of the CIV, the Italian Speed ​​Championship, and of the PreGP, contributing to a reduction in transversal registration costs for all participants in the MiniGP and Minimoto Championships.

Also involved in the day were the very young Mattia Casadei and Kevin Sabatucci, drivers of the Sic58 Squadra Corse, wanted by Paolo Simoncelli and supported by San Carlo.

A special report of the conference will be broadcast tomorrow evening, Thursday 14th on Griglia di Partenza, on Telenova, while the complete presentation will be broadcast again this Friday 15th at 23.00pm on Dinamica Channel, digital terrestrial channel 249.

“I am proud and happy to announce the collaboration for this 2013 racing season with Team Italia of the Italian Motorcycle Federation – he said Alberto Vitaloni, President of San Carlo Gruppo Alimentare SpA – Together we will be present in the MotoGP World Championship in the Moto3 class with the young talents Fenati and Bagnaia: a beautiful adventure in a category from which the champions of the future are born. This confirms the path of support for young people that we have undertaken for some years in various sports disciplines. An important objective, based on fundamental prerogatives such as commitment, tenacity and passion, characteristics that San Carlo supports and in which he firmly believes. I am sure that we are laying the foundations for a successful collaboration with a team with a great desire to do."

“I am very satisfied with the recent agreement which will see two Italian companies involved in the MotoGP World Championship Moto 3 class, the European Stock 600 Championship and in the activity of supporting young talents – he added Paolo Sesti, President of the IMF – It is certainly positive that a reference brand like San Carlo joins our initiatives, sharing the spirit and sporting aims that have always been the prerogative of the Italian Motorcycle Federation. A collaboration therefore begins which is aimed at the development of sport with particular attention to young people. All prerequisites for a constructive and successful union.”
