SpaItalia

SpaItalia’s 9th edition will no doubt be the most outstanding event of the coming motoring Summer.
Alfa Romeo’s centenary will be the opportunity to focus on all symbols connected to the brand that
are undelibly printed on everyone’s mind: the sporting spirit, the technological excellence, the elegant lines and the musical sound of the engines.
The organizers of SpaItalia invite all lovers of Italian beauties to assist at this celebration in the heart of the most beautiful circuit in the world, on 19 and 20 June.

Theme

From Torpedo to Duetto, from Guilietta to 8C, a lot of Alfa Romeo models are unforgettable. Because
they represent the entire Italian creative genius of course. But mostly because they have been created
by passionate people, for passionate people ! The legend was also built by the rallys. Alfa Romeo started competition in the first months after its creation, out of mission, out of necessity, out of conviction.
Finally, the greatest pilots, engineers or designers have written the most beautiful pages in Alfa Romeo’s history: Nuvolari, Ferrari, Fangio, Merosi, Jano, Pininfarina, Zagato,…
It is this fabulous saga that SpaItalia will try to tell to the numerous visitors who are expected in the heart of the circuit in the Ardennes in order to worthily celebrate an anniversary.

Activities

Thanks to the diversity of the possibilities offered to the participants, SpaItalia is year after year an enormous succes. In 2010, the tradition will go on with a Tourist Rally, a Concours d'Elegance, the Grande Parade on the circuit, the first runs and the free practice sessions for sports cars. This year, particular attention will of course be paid to the brand with the snake, by means of interactive and playful activities, such as the Big Alfa Quiz and the Car of the Hour, which will honour a lot of participants. But above all the organization of nothing less than THE GREATEST GATHERING OF ALFA ROMEO CARS EVER IN EUROPE !
