| Per Einarsson (real-life and simracing) If I could choose a daily driver: Alfa Romeo 166 3.0 V6 If my lottery ticket came out: Alfa Romeo 8c2900, Maserati Ghibli 4.9, Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale The best drive: Alfa Romeo GTV 2.0 TS All-time classic: Alfa Romeo Tipo B Place(s) I would like to drive: 24 hours on Le Mans or the Ring Best car experience: Drive all the way to Spa on my own in my old Alfa, check into a hotel among friendly Belgians on a warm summer night. And drive to SpaItalia early the next morning - Wow! Right now I am looking forward to: Get my old Alfa out of the garage and prepared The best GPL-track: Nürburgring GPL is cool because: Love it when (I think) I find the balance The best race driver ever: Stirling Moss was really skilled and determined, Michael Shumacher is unreal (as is his car) but Tom Kristensen is a new motoring-hero who ecclipses the old records in a real car |

| We were there from the start Per Einarsson was entered by ITR for the 1966 24-hours race at Le mans. A race expected to be dominated by the Ferrari-Ford war saw some tough dicing between the bigbore GT40 of Bruce Mclaren entered by Shelby American and the ITR Alfa. The blue Alfa Romeo 2000 GT Veloce pitted in during the night with differential trouble and was retired after 30 minutes of fruitless repair. Another race lost. But then again - almost won as well ... |

| We were there from the start For the 1921 Targa Florio Scuderia Into The Red sent Per Einarsson in the Alfa Romeo 166 3-litre. The cars were sent off with 2 minute intervals and the Silver Alfa soon catched Giulio Ramponi in the factory-entered Alfa Romeo 40-60HP. But the ITR team manager retired when he stopped for an espresso and the car was stolen. Another race lost. But then again - almost won as well ... |

| We were there from the start Per Einarsson drove the 1985 Formula 1 race at Spa Francorchamps in the white Alfa Romeo 164 2-litre. The main fight of the day was the 10-lap dice between Einarsson and Ayrton Senna in the John Player black Lotus-Renault. Co-driver Gert Sterner, who filmed the whole batang on his DV-cam, was unfortunate to spill some Coca-Cola into the instruments of the Alfa, which led to a premature retirement. Another race lost. But then again - almost won as well ... |
