Morandi Memorial XIV

Morandi Memorial was born to celebrate the pilot Giuseppe Morandi from Castiglione. He won various national and international races between 1921 and 1932 driving OM Brescia cars, among them the first edition of Mille Miglia in 1927. In 2009 Club Auto Moto Storiche Castiglionese promoted the publication of the book <Morandi, il primo della Mille Miglia> and this year organizes the 14th edition of Memorial Morandi, reserved to vintage cars built until 1940.
