Can you recognise these well-known characters in the world of karting… when they were young?

A new small challenge for all enthusiasts: recognising six well-known characters from the world of karting starting from their photos from (quite a long) time ago. These are not just driders who have made the history of this sport, but also technicians and builders who have developed some of the most important industrial companies in this sector. Maybe their faces are less known, but their names are not, which often (but not always) found in different roles in the organisational structures of the best-known companies and, consequently, printed on the chassis that we all use. The challenge of recognising them, in itself, is just a game, but valid as a way of discovering the many stories behind those names that are hidden and that are an essential heritage of the karting world. Are you ready?

Giancarlo Tinini, or "Mr. CRG ". The company, therefore, does not bear its name, even if the "G" is the initial of his name. However, the other two letters are the initials of Calogero and Roberto Vanaria, the other two people who founded CRG with Tinini. In the present day, Giancarlo Tinini is at the helm of the "Tinini Group", of which CRG is one of the brands. At this point there is no need to retrace the history and the victories of what is undoubtedly one of the largest and best known companies in the sector.
