Reggio Emilia, September 6th 2017. Two victories and several podium finishes in the first part of the season, let Matteo Greco and Gabriele Torelli to head to Imola as leaders of the Seat Leon Cup. At the Santerno's track, which hosts this weekend the fifth and penultimate round of the one-make series open to the Spanish powerful cars, the Nova Race duo aim to extend their lead in the overall standings as they can boast 27 points over the second. After claiming last July two second places in the latest race at Mugello, Greco also leads the Junior class and now he and his team mate aims to a top result again looking forward the "grand finale" at Monza late next October.

Good expectation also for Alberto Biraghi, who is determined to return to the podium as he already did in the opening round at Adria.

At Imola, as the Italian GT Championship reaches in the same weekend of 9th-10th September the fifth out of seven 2017 rounds, the Emilia-based squad will field two Ginetta G55 GT4s. One of these will be driven by Luca Magnoni, who aims to take again the GTS class lead recovering the 11-point gap that separate him from the top.

Alessandro Marchetti and reentrant Mark Speakerwas will share the second Nova Race's British car.
Worth noting that Magnoni will split his commitment, entering also the GT3 class at the wheel of an Audi R8 LMS shared with experienced Luca Rangoni.
