LOCALS MASTER THE DOLOMITES

-

Homegrown classics stormed to victory in the fifth annual Winterace, a romping regularity rally across eight mountain passes in the Dolomites and around the incredible roads surroundin­g Cortina d’ampezzo.

The 1939 Lancia Aprilia of Gianmario Fontanello and Annamaria Covelli (below) took the overall win, with the sister 1937 Classic Team ASD Aprilia of Sergio Sisti and Anna Gualandi and the 1935 Fiat 508S of Emanuel Piona and Domenico Battagliol­a rounding out the top three. It completed a hat-trick of overall victories for Fontanello and Covelli, having reigned in 2014 and 2015 behind the wheel of their 1955 Porsche 356A, and in the process prevented Sisti and Gualandi from scoring three wins in a row.
