Following the steps of Ferrari Formula 1 team, which is wearing mourning during this weekend’s European Grand Prix at the Nürburgring, the three Autodelta drivers, Gabriele Tarquini, Fabrizio Giovanardi and Augusto Farfus, are wearing a black arm-band on their racing overalls, while their Alfa Romeo 156 cars sport black stripes on the bonnet, across the radiator grille.
