AI-generated summary
Villorba Corse began a collaboration with Lamborghini this year as a team 'supported by Lamborghini' and is participating in the International GT Open with the Huracán GT3 Evo2.
The successes of Villorba Corse in the International GT Open meet in Monza with a new and important chapter of the GT3 program inaugurated this year as a team "supported by Lamborghini". The Treviso team continues its collaboration with the Sant'Agata Bolognese brand and for the first time will participate with the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 Evo2 in a round of the 2026 Italian GT Championship, which will conclude the season on 9-11 October on the historic Brianza circuit.
On this occasion, Sandy Mitchell and Leonardo Moncini will line up at the start.
The first, a Scot from Dundee born in 2000, is a well-known name in GT racing and in particular in the Lamborghini galaxy, as he has been an official driver for several years, and will be racing in the Villorba Corse colors for the first time. Moncini has recently joined Lamborghini's Young Driver Program and is therefore one of the GT3 Junior Drivers of the academy. The talented 22-year-old driver from Brescia joined the team managed by Raimondo Amadio at the beginning of 2026 to compete together with the young Portuguese Rodrigo Testa in the International GT Open, in which in September he won both race 1 at Hockenheim and the Monza 500 last Sunday.
On the Autodromo Nazionale, Villorba Corse and the new Italian-British crew will be involved in the two races valid for the Italian GT Sprint Championship on Saturday 10 October at 4.55pm and Sunday 11th at 2.50pm. Both over a distance of 50 minutes + 1 lap, they will be broadcast live on ACI Sport TV (Sky 228, TvSat 52 and web).
"The Tricolore GT will be a further stage of our new course in the premier class in a season that has seen us grow and return to the top - explains team principal Raimondo Amadio - For this reason the team will do its best and if necessary even more to try to get some good satisfaction. We welcome Sandy Mitchell, a driver who I have always appreciated a lot because he is fast and concrete in every situation. I am sure that with Moncini they will form an excellent couple".
"I can't wait to experience the Monza weekend together with Villorba Corse - says Sandy Mitchell - It's always a pleasure to race on such an iconic circuit and I'm really excited for the race weekend to begin. Leonardo and Villorba Corse have already achieved excellent results during this season and I hope that together we will be able to continue on this path, aiming to achieve an important result".
"Already now - Leonardo Moncini - I feel very motivated in view of the Italian GT stage and I am sure that the team will be too, because we are coming off the victory in last Sunday's Monza 500 and on this occasion we managed to express our potential well. Sandy will be a great added value, I will be available to her and the team, first of all to learn as much as possible. We are ready, therefore, and I can't wait to get started!".
