Mugelli to drive an Alfa Romeo Giulietta for PRS Motorsport

PRS Motorsport has signed Massimiliano Mugelli to drive the team’s Alfa Romeo Giulietta in the 2019 TCR Italy championship.

Team principal Oriano Agostini commented: “We are delighted to welcome Mugelli in the team; he is a top driver and together we are aiming for the TCR Italy title. We have just completed a fruitful test day at Mugello, working side by side with the Romeo Ferraris technical staff. We are confident that a brilliant season lays ahead, but we must stay focused, because competition will be strong.”

Mugelli has successfully taken part in TCR Italy’s two previous seasons; he was classified fourth in 2017 driving an Audi RS 3 LMS and ninth last year in a Honda Civic Type R. “I have been impressed by the Giulietta, especially by its torque. I am very confident, because the team has always worked well and we can also count on the technical support from the Romeo Ferraris engineering. I am excited for racing with an Italian car, as this provides further motivation,” said Mugelli.
