The late Elio de Angelis remains one of the great Italian talents of Formula 1. And in this interview Autoprove.it retrace the stages together with Roberto de Angelis, Elio’s brother, and Andrea Gallignani.
Zandvoort is a high speed circuit and I really love to race on quick tracks – I prefer them to slow tracks like Detroit and Monte Carlo because I love the high-speed corners…
Elio De Angelis. I don’t think he was one of us. A normal person, I mean. Elio De Angelis represented, and represents even more today, an exception. A wonderful exception…
It’s a mad dash along the pit straight in fifth gear towards the Variante del Goodyear before you begin the great big slowing down process, selecting second gear just before you turn…
L’an dernier, il se battait pour se qualifier. Cette année, c’est en pensant aux premières lignes qu’il pilote généreusement sa monoplace. Le moins qu’on puisse dire est qu’il a gagné…
Last year it was a real effort for him to qualify. This year he aims at the front rows when he’s driving in practice. The least one can say is that he’s made the right choice by swooping from Shadow…

Das Klischee vom Millionärssohn paßt ganz hervorragend: ein schwerreicher Vater, ein wunderschöner Name, Rom als Geburtsstätte. Dazu spielt er konzertreif Klavier…
The cliché of the son of a millionaire fits perfectly: a very rich father, a wonderful name, Rome as the place of birth. In addition, he plays the piano at a concert level…
Interroghiamo un testimone di primo piano, anzi un protagonista dei Gran Premi, visto che nella classifica iridata alle spalle di “quei due” inafferrabili della McLaren c’è lui, Elio de Angelis…
We questioned a prominent witness, indeed a protagonist of the Grands Prix, given that in the championship standings behind “those elusive” McLarens there is him, Elio de Angelis…
The young man is still only twenty-six, but Dallas was his 81st grand prix, more than Rosberg or Prost. He started his F1 life as the son of a rich father, acquired a reputation as a dilettante…
Born with the proverbial silver spoon in his mouth as the son of a wealthy Roman building contractor, Elio de Angelis made up his mind from an early age that he should carve his own niche in the world…

🇮🇹 "Seguivo da molto tempo Elio e sono rimasto impressionato nel vederlo impegnato a cavarsela egregiamente con una macchina come quella che guidava l’anno scorso, Già avevo annotato il suo nome sul mio taccuino vedendolo correre in Formula 3 sia a Silverstone che a Montecarlo. A Silverstone mi aveva impressionato il suo modo di rimontare e a Montecarlo la sua determinazione nel voler vincere ad ogni costo.
Ritengo queste due doti molto importanti per un pilota che vuole guidare la mia macchina, il resto me lo ha dimostrato nel programma di prove al “Paul Ricard”. Una volta assodato che Elio era il pilota giusto per la mia scuderia, non ho esitato a tentare tutti i mezzi per portarlo alla Lotus. " - Colin Chapman (1980)

🇬🇧 "I had been following Elio for a long time and I was impressed to see him doing so well with a car like the one he drove last year. I had already written his name down in my notebook when I saw him racing in Formula 3 at both Silverstone and Monte Carlo. At Silverstone I was impressed by his way of recovering and at Monte Carlo by his determination to win at all costs.
I think these two qualities are very important for a driver who wants to drive my car, he showed me the rest in the test program at “Paul Ricard”. Once I had established that Elio was the right driver for my team, I did not hesitate to try all means to bring him to Lotus." - Colin Chapman (1980)
