The “Nino Vaccarella Prize” is born. A particular and prestigious recognition linked to the name of the great champion and sportsman established by the ACI Sport Sicilia Delegate / Trustee Daniele Settimo, in agreement with the staff of the Regional Delegation.
The “Nino Vaccarella Prize” is intended for those who stand out particularly in the exaltation of the Sicilian automotive sports world and the first edition will be the one aimed at 2021, which will be delivered as part of the next Regional 4-wheel Championships award ceremony.
The favor and availability of Giovanni Vaccarella, the son of the “Flying Dean”, who immediately offered his collaboration towards the initiative, was immediate.
“I wanted the institution of the ‘Nino Vaccarella’ award both to remember the figure of the great sportsman, and for the many sporting successes with which the Professor has always exalted our region, his beloved land, from which one has not never separated – affirms Daniele Settimo – moreover his action as Regional Delegate of the then CSAI was precious and fundamental. We need to give continuity to the memory of a great name and pass on its deeds and memories to the new generation of sportsmen as well. The award is certainly a means to make the figure of the champion and the man of culture, of which Sicily is proud, always current. As always, I found great availability and collaboration from Giovanni Vaccarella to whom the gratitude of the Sicilian Delegation goes right now ”.
The prize, immediately among the most coveted awards, will be awarded as part of all future awards of the Sicilian Automobile Championships.
The task for the realization of the prize has already been assigned, which will remain the same for all editions.
