Vittorio’s less-known older brother started out in motorcycle racing before moving into four-wheeled competition in the early 1960s.
A notoriously hard racer, ‘Tino’ raced in Formula 2 with some success, but his two F1 opportunities didn’t give him the opportunity to showcase what talent he had.
His first World Championship appearance came at the 1963 Italian Grand Prix with Scuderia Centro Sud, where he failed to qualify. He appeared one more time six years later with Ferrari, but he had to relinquish his seat to Pedro Rodríguez.
