The new Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale was created to celebrate an icon and, at the same time, to mark a new chapter in the legendary history of the Italian global brand. To discover its most authentic essence, a small selection of experts has been invited to the iconic Balocco track to enjoy an immersive experience and discover all the secrets of the new Alfa Romeo custom-built car.

Finally, part 3 of the event consisted of an in-depth overview of the production process. Carried out in conjunction with Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera, it is a one-off process anywhere in the world that combines the utmost in artisanship and innovation.
