These
pages are devoted to the Maserati Biturbos that, thanks to the
initiative of Tony Palma and the direct support of the Trident,
took part in the 1987 World Touring Car Championship and that,
in the next years, were present in the Italian championships
CIVT and SuperTurismo.
|
|
| The
chief purpose is to gather
photographs, news and as much useful information as possible
from the protagonists of that days and
from everyone who is fond of Maserati or of all sorts of
competition cars. |

is the start of the story ...
"I have ever been a
Maserati enthusiast and every time I see a Trident car I
stop and watch it.
In 1997 while I was walking near a coach repairer
workshop in Sanremo I saw inside two Maserati Biturbo
completely clad with dust. Going closer I realized that
under the dust there were the tipical coloured stickers
of a sponsor on a race car. My first thought was :
"Funny! Someone has made a replica of 1987 Wtcc
Biturbo". I was wrong! They were really the last
two Maserati Gr.A that Pro Team sold few years before
to Cibiemme, the team that took part in 1987 Wtcc with
Bmw M3. The cars were there to be modified with
fiberglass parts to race Formula Rally championship, and had a lot of spares behind.
Within about three months I managed with a lot of
difficulties to buy them before they were modified.
Since that day I began to find news and articles on old
sports car magazines to gather useful information
to build a site dedicated to these Maseratis." |
