Mario Passanante/Dario Moretti on a 1937 Fiat 508C won the Coppa d’Oro delle Dolomiti-2021. «I am very happy that I won the second rally of the Campionato Italiano Grandi Eventi series (approx. Passanante/Moretti won the rally «Milan-San Remo» this season). For me, this is the third victory at the Coppa d’Oro delle Dolomiti. This year was an exciting and difficult race, including due to rain on some sections on the first day of the competition, and an important result in sports terms (only 0.22 penalty points on average) made the picture complete, » Mario Passanante told AutoClassicNews after the finish.

Talking about which of the three races won was the most memorable, Mario answered philosophically: «Every victory is an emotion.» He also added: «I always say that every rally is a separate story»

The crew of Alessandro Gamberini/Guido Ceccardi finished in second place with a gap of 120.33 points. The silver medalists of «Mille Miglia – 2020» Sergio Sisti and Anna Gualandi on a Lancia Lambda of 1929 release closed the top three winners.
