MINI MAN STAYS WITH EXCELR8
Luca Marinoni Osborne is looking for podium finishes after confirming his return for a second Mini Challenge Trophy season in 2023 with frontrunner Excelr8 Motorsport.
The teenage karting graduate joined the team for his first full car-racing season in the Trophy this year. He took a top-10 finish in his debut meeting at Pembrey and finished 16th in the standings, the fourth rookie.
Marinoni Osborne said: “This year for me has been a huge learning curve.
It’s hard to put into words how much I’ve been able to learn from the team, and from working with
Dan [Zelos, 2021 JCW champion], and the goal now is to push forwards and try to challenge for Graduate [class] wins and hopefully some [overall] podium finishes.”
