Baja, Suzuki brings two aces
Lorenzo Codecà and Alessio De Angelis ready for the challenge with the Grand Vitara. Italian baja 2010 starts setting up the starting grid of competitors, while the countdown for the spring appointment is going on quickly. Official Suzuki Tean, the Emmetre Racing of Massimo Nicoletti, has enrolled two big names such as Alessio De Angelis, 2009 vice champion, and Lorenzo Codecà, Italian champion in 2005, 2007 and 2008 editions. Both of them will drive Suzuki Grand Vitara, category T1/12, practically off road vehicles modified with an engine capacity between thirteen hundred and thirty-five hundred cubic centimetres. On the side we have Codecà, it his fifth year with Suzuki and he is now hoping for more success after the ups and downs of last year. On the other side De Angelis, the pilot from Ferrara, who has changed his team after a wonderful season with Mitsubishi that gave him the most honourable position. Among their rivals, some first shapes appear at the moment: Valter Benazzato (Peugeot) and Franco Grigoletto (Toyota), faithful participants to Italian Baja, some "second leads" and we are waiting for some other Italian bigs. In case of the foreign drivers, we have to wait for the final result of the Northern Forest Baja, which is actually running at Saint Petersburg (Russia). A lot of news for biker and quad drivers, stimulated by the country cross formula, with a more flowing and compact track. Attention for the start of Erika Burioli (KTM), quick and gritty: we hope that she may be able to open a formula "baja in pink" with a lot of adhesions.
