Up!

[Jean-Marie H]

It' the starting grid of the "Circuito di Pescara", "Coppa Acerbo" 1947 (Italy of course).

The car #23 is the AAC 815 ( in fact,the first Ferrari ever) driven by Enrico Beltracchini's

As the results of this race are incomplete I haven't find the three ohters cars.

It just miss the #21 car which was the Ferrari 159 driven by Cortese. (following the original pic).

Good!
It's indeed 1947 Coppa Acerbo, and #23 is Beltracchini's Auto Avio 815... two points for you!!

To complete my first answer :

The car #23 is a Lancia Aprilia driven by Enrico Adanti

The #24 one is a Fiat driven by Gianni

and the last one on the right it's the car #28 a Lancia Aprilia "aerodynamica" driven by Agostini

As I said before two cars are unknown to me...
So... ok for #24 which is Gianni's Fiat 1500... (one more point!)
But you should prove me the two Lancias. I have an Adanti's Aprilia but is different (#22)... and I don't know Agostini's Aerodinamica...

All the informations are from the book "Coppa Acerbo" " Circuito Internazionale Degli Abruzi" by Frederico Valeriani page 289.


It's ok for the number of the Lancia I gave the number of the AAC 815 (#23) instead of the correct #22 one, sorry.

On this page, you find all the complete entry list, the complete period pic with the number,make and driver of each car which are on it.

As I can't put a link here, I can send you the link by PM if you want.
