Contact: Miguel Ceballos FCA México: ‘Historias de Alfa Romeo’ Episodio Uno: conducción a bordo del 24 HP La historia comenzó el 24 de junio de 1910, con la fundación de la A.L.F.A. (Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili) Los 24 HP tenían un motor monobloque de 4 cilindros, 4 litros de desplazamiento y 42 caballos de fuerza El 40/60 HP nace en 1913 y fue capaz de alcanzar 139 km/h Enzo Ferrari tuvo una fuerte vinculación con Alfa Romeo en el deporte motor April 20, 2020, Ciudad de México - Historias y personajes de principios del siglo XX, centrados en el primer coche de la firma italiana: un elegante ‘cohete’ capaz de alcanzar 100 km/h. El francés de Nápoles Oficialmente nuestra historia comenzó el 24 de junio de 1910, con la fundación de la A.L.F.A. (Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili). Pero vamos a empezar unos años antes, con un personaje colorido: un francés con un bigote de manillar y un instinto sobresaliente para los negocios. Pierre Alexandre Darracq comenzó su carrera dirigiendo una fábrica de bicicletas en Burdeos, antes de enamorarse de los automóviles. Así, comenzó a producir automóviles en Francia y hacer un éxito de la misma. Luego decidió exportar la apertura de sucursales en Londres y luego Italia. En Italia comenzó sus operaciones, en abril de 1906. Pero Nápoles estaba muy lejos de Francia y el viaje era complejo y costoso. Así, en diciembre había transferido la producción a Milán, en el número 95 en el distrito de Portello. Pero junto con las dificultades logísticas se dio cuenta de que también había problemas de mercado. -

Racing still serves to prove and inspire Alfa Romeo design, long known to be geared for both track and street. It has produced a wide range of innovative vehicles that are now hailed as classics. From the 8C 2300 (which won the 1931 Le Mans) to the Giulia GTA (taking several 1960s European Touring Car Championship titles) to the Alfa Romeo 155 V6 Ti (an Italian Superturismo series champ in the 1990s), Alfa Romeo continues to push ahead in order to proudly look back. HISTORY / 4 DRIVING FORCES For well over a century, Alfa Romeo designers and engineers have built a legendary brand by achieving remarkable symmetry: their goals of creating heightened emotions and developing innovative technology are passionately pursued in equal measure. These defining principles inspire everything from our most powerful Formula 1 entries to today’s Giulia Quadrifoglio — all clocking in world-class performance laps on racing’s most challenging tracks. The main takeaway from the unique, driver-centric design of Alfa Romeo? A relentless intensity that transforms every road — and every passenger. Quadrifoglio shown in Rosso Competizione Tri-Coat.

Next Event John Ehle’S Mother Stay Away from Me Social Distancing Spring Tour Saturday May 9, 2020
NEWSLETTER OF THE ALFA ROMEO OWNERS CLUB – WISCONSIN— MAY 2020 ALFANATIC Next Event John Ehle’s Mother Stay Away From Me Social Distancing Spring Tour Saturday May 9, 2020 What: A one-day spring driving tour. Participants may bring any car of their choosing. There’s a preference for sports cars, and a stronger preference for vintage (pre-1990) sports cars, but anything is welcome. This is not a lead-follow event, and there are no “run groups,” thus allowing participants to go at their own pace. For social distancing purposes, there will be NO set stops along the route, and NO organized meals; lunch will be on your own, with the route running through an area with a variety of lunch op- tions, should you choose to purchase rather than bring your own. I will email the participants the route book in pdf format the day before the tour, on Friday, May 8. When: Saturday, May 9, 2020. Planned departure time of 10:00 am. There will be NO social gathering at the start, but I will be at the starting point 10-15 minutes early to wave or say hello from a minimum distance of 6 feet. It would be great to see all of your friendly faces, even only from a distance, and gather the cars at the start to see what cool cars show up this year. There’s certainly no need to get out of your car for the sake of distancing and safety. Where: We’ll start from the the Visitors Center/Rest Area in Pleasant Prairie, just north of the Wisconsin state line at the inter- change of I-94 and Hwy 165.
