- It’s done it again! The F1 single-seater driven by Alfa Romeo’s Zhou Guanyu has left behind the official international circuits to whizz through the streets of central Italy, to everyone’s amazement.
Under a year ago, to be exact on June 24, 2022 (the brand’s 112th anniversary), Valtteri Bottas – a driver in the Alfa Romeo F1 Team – gave Milan a wake-up call by roaring his C42 through the still-deserted streets of the sleepy city. An utterly extravagant way for Alfa Romeo to celebrate its birthday.
It seems that this can no longer be considered a unique occurrence: Alfa Romeo is at it again on the Cassino-Pomigliano route, the ideal link between the brand’s Italian plants. Once again, the new single-seater driven by China’s Zhou Guanyu has been picked up in a very different habitat from the usual, draining tarmac of circuits all over the world.
Regardless of the reasons for taking part in this initiative, the Chinese driver picks up no points, but will be back challenging his fierce opponents in the next Grand Prix in Baku, Azerbaijan, to show off his ability. Even so, it’s definitely a singular, daring, typically Alfa Romeo way to amaze its tribe of enthusiasts.
Stay tuned…
