    La Rivista Numero 1

    n. 1 / gennaio 2020 PERIODICO DELLA COMMISSIONE STORIA E MUSEI DELL’AUTOMOTOCLUB STORICO ITALIANO www.asimusei.it Musei e Collezioni come “Motori di Cultura” La “Rivista dei Musei” vuole essere un tributo e un riconoscimento ai Musei e alle Collezioni italiane che interpretano il prestigioso ruolo di custodi della storia del motorismo. La nostra comune passione ha le stesse radici: i musei raccolgono, restaurano e proteggono ciò che l’ASI tutela e promuove. Il patrimonio tecnico e culturale del motorismo storico italiano non ha pari al mondo e noi ci adoperiamo sempre più per non disperderlo e farlo conoscere. Inoltre, la passione che anima questo grande movimento genera un indotto economico che è secondo solo al calcio: il motorismo storico è una vera e propria “industria sociale”, capace di coinvolgere gli ambiti più disparati del quotidiano Alberto Scuro individuale. A partire con l’indotto diretto, rappresentato da tutta la filiera professionale che gravita intorno ai veicoli storici con gli addetti dei vari comparti: restauro, carrozzeria, meccanica, selleria, ricambistica, editoria. Nel 2018 è stato stimato in 2,2 miliardi di euro il valore economico annuo generato dal motorismo storico italiano, di cui il 52% deriva dalla gestione e manutenzione dei veicoli, il 22% dalla loro acquisizione e il 26% dal turismo indotto. Inoltre, il 64% degli intervistati ha dichiarato un marcato interesse per il settore e il 68% ha assistito dal vivo ad una manifestazione legata ai veicoli d’epoca. Sono cifre importanti, che collocano il nostro movimento ai primi posti dei valori culturali nazionali, ambito nel quale operano anche – e soprattutto - i musei del motorismo, con dedizione e impegno nonostante le molte difficoltà.

The day before yesterday 166 Notes 175 Images 191 Introduction and acknowledgements POLITICS AND SPORT are by definition incompatible, and they're combustible when mixed. The 1930s proved that: the Winter Olympics in Germany in 1936, when the President of the International Olympic Committee threatened to cancel the Games unless the anti-semitic posters were all taken down now, whatever Adolf Hitler decrees; the 1936 Summer Games in Berlin and Hitler's look of utter disgust when Jesse Owens, a negro, won the 100 metres; the World Heavyweight title fight in 1938 between Joe Louis, a negro, and Germany's Max Schmeling which carried racial undertones and overtones. The fight lasted 2 minutes 4 seconds, and in that time Louis knocked Schmeling down four times. They say that some of Schmeling's teeth were found embedded in Louis's glove... Motor racing, a dangerous but genteel activity in the 1920s and early 1930s, was touched by this, too, and touched hard. The combustible mixture produced two Grand Prix races at Donington Park, in 1937 and 1938, which were just as dramatic, just as sinister and just as full of foreboding. This is the full story of those races.

    Story of the Alfa Romeo Factory and Plants : Part 1 the Early Portello

    Story of the Alfa Romeo factory and plants: Part 1 The early Portello Factory Patrick Italiano Special thanks go to Karl Schnelle, Indianapolis, USA, for his patient proofreading and editing of the English version of this text Over the last few years, we have had to deal with large changes in Alfa Romeo-related places and buildings, as we witnessed the destruction of the old Portello factory, step by step in the late 80s, and also the de-commissioning of the much more modern Arese plant. Sad tales and silly pictures of places and people once full of pride in manufacturing the most spirited cars in the world. As reported by historians, it has long been – and still is for few – a source of pride to belong to this “workers aristocracy” at A.L.F.A.. Places recently destroyed to make place for concrete buildings now containing commercial centres or anonymous offices, places where our beloved cars were once designed, developed and built. It’s often a mix of curiosity and thrill to have the chance to look behind the scenes and see into the sanctuary. Back in 1987, when the first part of Portello was being torn down, Ben Hendricks took us on a visit to the Portello plant in Het Klaverblaadje #40. That was, as Jos Hugense coined the title 15 years later, the “beginning of the end”. Today, one can see Alfas running on the Fiat assembly lines along with Fiat Stilos and at best Lancia Thesis. These Fiat plants are no longer the places where distinguished and passionate brains try to anticipate technical trends five years into the future, thus ensuring that the new generation of Alfas keep such high company standards, as Ing.

    19 June 2014 Maserati Centennial Exhibition Inaugurated in Modena

    Date: 19 June 2014 Maserati Centennial Exhibition Inaugurated In Modena New exhibition retraces a century of Maserati at the spectacular Enzo Ferrari Museum (MEF). The unique exhibition hosts a priceless collection of historic models and gives visitors the opportunity to relive the history of Maserati through technology that transports you to the heart of the event. A unique exhibition dedicated to the Centennial of Maserati was inaugurated in Modena this morning. MASERATI 100 - A Century of Pure Italian Luxury Sports Cars retraces the story of the Italian car manufacturer through an exhibition featuring some of the Trident marque’s most significant road and racing cars, plus a highly engaging show employing 19 projectors, enabling visitors to relive the most significant moments in the history of Maserati and to learn about the individuals who shaped its history. Staged in the futuristic Enzo Ferrari Museum, a stone's throw from the Maserati headquarters in Viale Ciro Menotti, the exhibition will run until January 2015. Considering the historic value of the models exhibited, this is the greatest exhibition of Maserati cars ever staged anywhere in the world. The inauguration of the new exhibition was attended by the CEO of Maserati, Harald Wester, and the Chairman of Ferrari, Luca Cordero di Montezemolo. They were joined by the cousins Carlo and Alfieri Maserati, sons, respectively, of Ettore and Ernesto Maserati, the two brothers who in 1914, together with Alfieri Maserati, founded the company that still bears their name today. The guest of honour at the inauguration was the legendary Sir Stirling Moss, the 1950s Maserati racing driver who scooped incredible victories for the Trident marque.

Oggi, a 90 anni di distanza, tre Alfa Romeo ai primi tre posti in un'edizione da record della rievocazione storica con 450 equipaggi in gara, a conferma del legame indissolubile tra il brand e la più bella competizione automobilistica nel mondo.

    90Th Anniversary of the Targa Florio Victory: Bugatti Wins Fifth Consecutive Title

    90th anniversary of the Targa Florio victory: Bugatti wins fifth consecutive title MOLSHEIM 02 05 2019 FOR MANY YEARS BUGATTI DOMINATED THE MOST IMPORTANT CAR RACE OF THE 1920S Legends were born on this track. Targa Florio in Sicily was considered the world’s hardest, most prestigious and most dangerous long-distance race for many years. Today, current Bugatti models remind us of the drivers from back in the day. Sicilian entrepreneur Vincenzo Florio established his own race on family-owned roads in the Madonie region. Between 1906 and 1977, sports cars raced for the title at international races, some of which even had sports car world championship status. Winners at this race could proudly advertise their victory. For this reason, all important sports car manufacturers sent their vehicles to Sicily. Between 1925 and 1929 Bugatti dominated the race with the Type 35. In particular, in 1928 and 1929, one man showcased his skills at the wheel of his vehicle: Albert Divo. In these two years he was unbeatable in his Bugatti Type 35 C, winning the race in Sicily on 5 May 1929 after having also claimed the top spot in 1928. He also set a further record when he crossed the finish line: the “Fabrik Bugatti” team won the title five times in a row – this had never been done before in the history of the Targa Florio and remained an unbeaten record until the end of the last official races, to this day. A reason to look back. After all, the race was anything but easy: initially one lap of the “Piccolo circuito delle Madonie” was around 148 kilometres, from 1919 organisers cut the race lap distance to a still considerable 108 kilometres.
