We have the great pleasure of welcoming Lucio Cesario as our guest of honour for castlemaine27. Lucio has racing pedigree in Australia and Italy, having been a driver for the LANCIA works team under the stewardship of the master strategist Cesare Fiorio for the 1985 WEC season driving a Lancia LC2.

The Beta was lancia’s first new model after the FIAT takeover, commencing the line up with the 4-door fastback saloon (Beta berlina), 2-door coupé (Beta Coupé), 2-door targa (Beta Spyder Zagato), 3-door estate (Beta HPE) and improving with various facelifts and sophistication as the years rolled onward finally finishing about 1985 with the VX series of supercharged coupe and HPE.
