The Minardi F1x2 two-seater cars will be among the feature attractions at the Bologna Motorshow, starting next Sunday at the Centro Fieristico Bologna.
Italian racers Matteo Bobbi and Gabriele Lancieri will be giving 50 passenger rides around the Motor Show's specially constructed outdoor circuit. The F1x2 runs will take place over four successive days with the riders nominated by Minardi commercial and technical partners.
"The team is very pleased once again to have a presence at the Bologna Motor Show and to be able to give a number of guests what will undoubtedly be the ride of a lifetime in a Minardi two-seater F1 car," said team principal Paul Stoddart.
"The F1x2 programme has always been about bringing the sport of Formula One closer to the fans, and after the Misano event last week, where the team provided rides to 112 passengers, it is very appropriate to bring what has been the most successful season ever for the Minardi two-seaters to a conclusion at the high-profile Bologna Show, which takes place close to the team's Faenza factory."
