In its second race in May at the Vallelunga circuit close to Rome, drivers Brian Lavio and Stefano Gattuso of the Kessel Racing team found victory in the main race despite some technical difficulties during the Saturday sessions. Ben Moss of Turicum Private Bank who was in attendance stated “Despite Brian being new to the GT3 championship, following on from his rallying career, he is proving to be very quick, consistently recording fast lap times and ultimately keeping the car in front. We are very happy with the result, and will remain keen supporters throughout the year with a close eye on Brian’s racing career.” These races are fervently followed in Italy attracting close to one million television viewers,
and being a Ferrari, the Turicum sponsored car is bound to meet the approval of the tifosi! Mario Fabbri, Chief Investment Officer of Turicum Private Bank (of Italian origin) said “There are plenty of shared values between the Ferrari brand and Turicum, the first to come to mind are exclusivity and performance.” He added “It is also great to be part of something this spectacular, and to be able to spread the word about our beloved Gibraltar.” Although the season still has a long way to go, with races on the famed circuits of Monza, Mugello and Imola, the Turicum car has had an excellent start and promising results. A space to be watched for racing fans in Gibraltar! n
