Coppa D'oro IV
The Ring
The grid filled with PGP entrants - one PGP+ entry, a new Auto Union Type 'C', entered by the other Luis, was delayed due to a barge accident in transit. A few new entries included several from the stables of the 3rd Marquis de Cinemato - and while their painted numbers were drying pilots were yet to be named. All in all a large and competitive field was presented.
Thrills, chills and surprises throughout - a lowly Ford V8
