Rosso Corsa
‘Rosso Corsa’, the most famous of all racing colours, the Racing Red. Actually, before Alfa Romeo and Ferrari became undividably associated with red, it was racing colour of the United States, but only from 1900 to 1907. When Prince Scipione Borghese infamously won mythical Peking to Paris race driving red Itala for 14.994 km and red F.I.A.T. won the second ever Grand Prix race, just all italian racing cars where painted red.
