SO MANY MOTORSPORT NAMES AT RALLYLEGEND. ELENOIRE CASALEGNO PATRONESS 2025
Now an unmissable crossover. As Rallylegend continues to evolve and capture the attention and affection of many figures from beyond the rally world, the 23rd edition will once again offer the chance to meet – and, in some cases, even see in action – true icons and much-loved stars from across the motorsport spectrum.
Arturo Merzario, whose career is filled with titles and victories from across Formula 1, the World Sportscar Championship and great road races such as the Targa Florio – enough to fill an encyclopaedia of motorsport – is one of Rallylegend’s most devoted admirers, a passion that he shares with the thousands of fans keen to meet him each time.
And the same goes for Simone Faggioli, the record-holding champion with 26 European and Italian titles won at the wheel of prototypes in the challenging and fascinating world of hill climbs, and this year the dominant winner of the iconic Pikes Peak International Hill Climb in the United States with the Nova Proto NP01.
Marco Melandri, meanwhile – 250cc world champion in 2002, former MotoGP rider and Italy’s all-time leader in World Superbike victories with 22 wins – will step into the role of DJ, entertaining visitors in the new “Fan Zone”: a space within the Rally Village dedicated to music, shows and food.
Antonello Coletta, Ferrari’s Global Head of Endurance and Corse Clienti – the man who has led the Prancing Horse back to the top of the spectacular world of endurance racing – has confirmed his presence at the Rally Village on Saturday. Another event not to be missed.
And adding even more energy to the start and finish stage will be Davide Valsecchi, whose long career in single seaters included several Formula 1 appearances. Now a brilliant and very knowledgeable TV commentator, he will join Guido Schittone, the long-standing ‘voice’ of Rallylegend.
ELENOIRE CASALEGNO PATRONESS RALLYLEGEND 2025
Standing out for her beauty, intelligence and artistic talent, Elenoire Casalegno is the patroness of Rallylegend 2025 and will meet the fans on Saturday 4 October in Rallylegend Village.
Elenoire Casalegno started out as a model in 1994. That same year, she made her debut as a TV and radio presenter, a role she continues to hold today, fronting music, variety and sports shows. She is also a film and TV actress. She recently appeared as a pundit on Italian show, La vita in diretta, and was a reporter on the 2024 edition of reality show, L’isola dei famosi.
NANDO PARRADO AND THE “MIRACLE IN THE ANDES”
Nando Parrado is a legend in every sense. Not just because the Uruguayan was a factory driver for Autodelta Alfa Romeo in 1977 and very active in the South American racing world. TV producer and writer Parrado was one of the survivors of the famous air disaster in the Andes, which occurred on 13 October 1972. The plane crashed in a remote area of the Argentinian Andes. Together with Roberto Canessa, Parrado embarked on a desperate walk across the mountains to get help, which led to the rescue of the fourteen remaining survivors. Parrado will tell his story at Rallylegend, before climbing aboard the great Colin McRae’s Subaru Impreza 555, a dream come true for the Uruguayan.
ENERLIGHT AND RALLYLEGEND: MOTORSPORT AND SUSTAINABILITY
Enerlight renews its collaboration with Rallylegend, a dynamic energy company with a forward-looking and environmentally oriented vision, based on knowledge and technical expertise. A leader in the design and construction of electrical and photovoltaic systems, Enerlight becomes a long-term partner, having designed and built a photovoltaic system for Rallylegend that will produce clean and
renewable energy for the coming years, feeding it into the San Marino electricity grid and thus offsetting the event’s energy consumption. This represents an important synergy between local businesses, for the local community. A meeting point between motorsport and sustainability.
