Galli takes Bettega

Gigi Galli won the Memorial Bettega last weekend ahead of Toni Gardemeister and Chris Atkinson. Galli was again back in action with the Bozian Racing prepared Peugeot 307, with the bright yellow livery of Pirelli Competizioni. Setting the fastest times on three of the event's five stages, Galli competed with his 2007 season in mind.

"I am delighted with this second consecutive success at Bologna," said Galli. "After the optimum results achieved in the Peugeot 307 WRC on Pirelli in various rounds of the world rally championship this year, winning the Memorial Bettega is always very pleasing. The P Zero K6s gave me a tremendous amount of traction on both the loose and asphalt, which was most certainly not the surface for which they were developed, further proof of their quality. As far as I am personally concerned, I hope this victory will earn me a valid programme for 2007, like the one Pirelli Competizioni quickly put together this year."

Gigi Galli to drive a Peugeot 307WRC in Finland

After a vague entry for Gigi Galli in this year's Finland Rally, it is now confirmed that the Italian will once again drive a Peugeot 307WRC car. For this rally, the car will be provided and prepared by BSA and not Bozian Racing. Bozian prepared Gigi's Peugeot 307 in his previous rallies this year. His main sponsor is still Pirelli, and from the current announcement, this looks like a one-time event, but a spokesman from the company said final details of deal is still in the works. Neste Oil Rally Finland will be on August 18 to 20. Good luck Gigi!
