Among the greatest car and car sports figures, it exists a very discreet and modest one but who however marked a complete generation of talented pilots :

Sir Tico Martini.

 

Uprooted Italian, replanted in Nièvre close to a new car circuit, he starts his new life in a little town called Magny-Cours. We are in 1963, and things will remain like this.
Director of the Winfield pilot school, until 1998, competition car manufacturer, today still working with his friend Guy Ligier, Tico leaded to success the greatest French champions.
