Ferlito Motors returns to two-car formation at Mugello as team signs Marotta, Romagnoli


With just two weeks left before the SUPERSTARS SERIES race at Mugello, valid for the ITALIAN SUPERSTARS CHAMPIONSHIP and set for July 24-25, the field is shaping up for the fifth out of eight double rounds in the Italian series, with some big news coming.

While the new N.Technology Porsche Panamera S will debut in the hands of world-class talent Fabrizio Giovanardi, the uphill track located in Tuscany is also set to welcome back the two Ferlito Motors Jaguars. The driver line-up is featuring experienced Riccardo Romagnoli and accustomed SUPERSTARS SERIES racer Gabriele Marotta.
 
News don't stop here, as the Verona-based team  plans to debut with a new 510-hp, 5-litre powerplant, replacing the 4.2-litre units used so far in 2010.
 
"The new engine is already revving up at the Dyno - told Team Manager Enzo Ferlito - and we'll do everything we can to introduce it from the round at Mugello. Our goal is to make it on-track for the test session scheduled at the venue on Wednesday, July 14. We're working with no rest to meet the deadline…" 
 
In the last round of the SUPERSTARS INTERNATIONAL SERIES, held at Hockenheim in June, a single Jaguar XF was fielded for young former open-wheel driver Matteo Meneghello.
