Interesting photograph this! Certainly looks as though something is being celebrated between Colin, Elio and Bernie...but what we will never know! (Note the Imola circuit cake) | Elio meets Indycar star Willy T. Ribbs during tyre testing at Estoril in January 1986. Ribbs was invited by Brabham to take part in the tests along with Elio and the rest of the F1 fraternity. |

An Elio de Angelis Euronote! Should be standard currency as far as I am concerned, at least this would make up for the disgrace of there not being any current F1 track corner named in Elio's memory. |

This was an article taken from Motoring News in 1989, and sent to me courtesy of David Hopkins. It describes one photographers very close encounter with Elio during the 1984 Monaco Grand Prix. Cheers David! | ||

During the 1985 Grand Prix of Germany at the 'neue' Nurburgring, Ute (Elio's Fiancee) was invited to take part in a Drivers Wives and Girlfriends Kart race. Ute (sporting the number 3) didn't let Elio down and brought the kart home in the points with a second place finish. | ||

Ute again, this time watching over Elio during the 1985 Grand Prix of Austria. She had some cause for concern, as the night before Elio had eaten some inedible Mushrooms and was feeling less than well! | ||

Elio describes how it feels to be an non-Italian Ferrari driver driving at San Marino in 1982. In 1985 he scored the final victory of his career after Alain Prost was disqualified after his McLaren was found to be under the minimum required after-race weight. | ||
 |
A rather ironic extract from an Official JPS Press Release in 1982, with which Elio describes a lap of the Paul Ricard circuit. He also expresses his concerns over the then current speeds and construction of F1 cars. |
