Rome – March 24, 2020 – In these days, work continues to develop the best solutions to face and solve the serious problems that the bacteriological emergency COVIC-19 has created, also in the field of sports car racing. The President of the Automobile Club d’Italia, Angelo Sticchi Damiani, has done a recap of the situation in particular with regard to the Rally Italia Sardegna 2020.

“It is now evident that the situation of the Pandemic unleashed by the Corona Virus, with its different development methods from country to country, requires a complete review of the calendar of the major international motor series, including the WRC.

In this sense – continues Angelo Sticchi Damiani – Automobile Club d’Italia, as the Federation of Italian motor racing and as Rally Italia Sardegna Organizer, has made itself available, with the FIA and with the WRC Promoter, to study a possible new date for the Italian event of the World Rally Championship.

This, in order to allow the creation of a new calendar that, on the one hand, allows a smooth running of the world championship series and, on the other, safeguards races of great prestige and great historical importance, such as the Rally Italia Sardegna” .
