GOODWOOD BREAKFAST CLUB

03.04.2007 "FORZA ITALIA" WAS THE THEME AT THE GOODWOOD BREAKFAST CLUB ON SUNDAY

Gli amanti di auto e moto Italiane hanno degustato una fantastica prima colazione tradizionale Inglese per la recente riunione di Goodwood Breakfast Club riguardante la giornata a tema di "Forza Italia". Magnifico pubblico, attrattive auto e ottimo cibo. Il perfetto inzio del mese! Or in other words: Enthusiasts of Italian cars and motorcycles enjoyed the a fantastic traditional English breakfast at the second Goodwood Breakfast Club meeting of 2007, held at the Motor Circuit on Sunday 1 April.

The theme for the event was ‘Forza Italia’, and the combination of many great people, great cars and great food proved to be the perfect start to the month. Amongst the myriad of red Ferraris, Ducatis and Alfa Romeos, some particularly uncommon, unusual and beautiful Italian ‘Carrozzeria’ was on display, highlights including a striking Edwardian-era Itala and Lancia Tipo 55, right up to an ultra-rare early-1990s Zagato Hyena with Lancia Delta Integrale running gear. A stunning Ferrari 250 GT ‘Tour de France’ and De Tomaso Mangusta proved especially popular with the early Spring Goodwood crowds, although a dinky Fiat 600 Multipla was arguably the most photographed car at the event.

Although the machinery on display at Goodwood was decidedly Latin, the nourishment on offer was very British, with many visitors tucking in to a hearty breakfast, made with Goodwood’s delicious home-reared organic ingredients.

All Goodwood Breakfast Club meetings reflect a different theme, and the next event, on 6 May, is set to attract an eclectic mix of distinctive pre- and post-War French cars, commercial vehicles, mopeds and motorcycles, representing the theme of ‘Vive la France – a celebration of unique French automotive flair.’
