Ombra Racing is an auto racing team based in Italy currently competing in the Porsche Supercup.[1] Ombra Racing was established in 1994 by the team founders Gianfranco Colleoni and Matteo Quadri and first entered the Italian Formula Junior (Trofeo Cadetti) from 1994 to 1999.[2]
History
[edit]In 2000, Ombra stepped up to the Italian Formula 3, where it won both the drivers' as well as the teams' championship titles with Matteo Cressoni in 2004. It remained a full-time regular in the series until 2008. From 2006 to 2008, Ombra additionally made season campaigns in the German Formula 3 (ATS Formula 3 Cup). The team also made wildcard starts in the 2005 Formula 3 Euro Series and 2008 British Formula Three Championship.[3]
They ventured in more powerful open wheeler categories when they ran a part-time schedule in the 2005 3000 Pro Series, and a complete season in the 2007 International Formula Master with Johnny Cecotto Jr. scoring three podiums. This was followed by entries in the Auto GP Series from 2010 to 2012 where Kevin Ceccon took the Drivers' Championship title while on the team in 2011.
Following 2012 they made the switch from open wheeler Formula style racing to Grand Touring racing. They focused on the International GT Open (IGTO)) and their domestic Italian GT Championship (CIGT). The duo of Alex Frassinetti and Michele Beretta won the Super GT3 PRO Category for both the Drivers' and Teams' Championship and the Manufacturers' title for Lamborghini in 2017.[4][5]
The Team stepped up to the top class of GT3 in 2016 with their participation in the Blancpain Endurance Series (BES) with a highlight class win in the Silver Cup of the 2018 24 Hours of Spa. [6] [7] Following the 2019 season, they moved from Lamborghini to the Porsche Carrera Cup.
Since 2020 the team runs in the Porsche Carrera Cup Italia and Porsche Supercup. Simone Iaquinta took the Italian Porsche Carrera Cup Drivers' title in 2019 and 2020 for the Team. [8]
