Vincenzo IaconianniI first meet Guido in 1977, while performing  a go-kart race, only later on we realized our future would be in the powerboating world. Although we both ran nto smaller categories, and in F.1, I’ve always been thinking of Guido as an extraordinary driver, as a matter of fact he managed to win 10 world titles, during  the “golden age” of powerboating, when his competitors were such champions as John Hill, the two Seebold, senior and junior, Jonatha..

Stephen J. Michael (The Voice)Interestingly enough, Guido’s and my career have mirrored each other after over 34 years in the sport.His first Intrenational F. 1 race was mine, as well in Nassau, Bahamas, in December of 1985.In his early days of his F.1 Racing, Guido was dressed perfectly in all his italian splendor, wearing his Stefanel Clothing sponsor, making the rest of us looking rather plane Jane. However, because he couldn’t speak english at the time, he was left i..

Salem R. El RemaithiFor me, Guido is very demanding. So, from a managerial aspect, he is an inspiration to many, because he’ll do things a lot of other managers wouldn’t dream of doing.He values his opponents and does not underestimate them. Always likes to work with the best. Very professional in dealing with drivers and other members of the Team.Working with Guido was sensational. We were by far better than all other teams.  He deserves credit for that and has moved T..

Giovanni “Nino” AnzaniI met Guido in Sardinia in 2000, during one of the Primatist races organized by the great Bruno Abbate. The first experience on his two-seater hull was on lake Iseo, when he made the world speed record on water. Created to allow a “guest” experience the speed- thrill, the racing catamaran was very similar to his F.1 one. It was an incredible experience! I had never imagined reaching 180 per hour on the water, with peaks of 200! It was crazy, a..

Piercarlo ViganòI have always been passionate about Powerboating, I was also President of MILA (Como Yacht Club) and there, in the eighties, I started seeing Guido racing: it was a show, and it was immediately clear  he had something more than the other drivers. I sponsored him throught his whole career. I remember his many triumphs and his victories, gained after exciting races, with incredible comebacks and overtaking.Among so many beautiful moments, there was a very ba..

Attilio DonzelliI’ve known Guido for a lifetime, since school. We attended the same group of friends, since we were children, when we used to play with the rubber-rifle  or the small cars moved by rolling the dice.We always had a lot of fun, and it was natural for me to follow Guido on his karting adventure.We all started together and tried to help him, someone driving the car, someone else cleaning the kart. We entered the speedboat’s world since the time we secretly..

Enrico MagniWhat about Guido? He is a friend, I sponsored him for many years and became his fan, as of the other great  friend he introduced me to, who unfortunately died too early: Bruno Abbate.Guido is a loyal, exquisite person, perhaps a little introverted but extremely effective and successful. Immediately after the decision to sponsor him, during the first race I ever saw at the Idroscalo circuit in Milan, he was leading the race and all of a sudden I witnessed..

Denis CappelliniWhen I was born, he was already there. Being his cousin, I followed Guido in all his experiences, as a friend and a collaborator, in all his sports and fun activities.Guido has always been very competitive and determined in everything he did. I think one of this greatest merits is the positivity in facing challenges, in addition to his determination and the search for perfection.On a sporting level, all these qualities have led him to win a lot, in everything..

Tullio AbbateGuido himself had survived a crash and realized that he could develop the hulls he wanted only by building them himself. It was a genial idea and he made it very good. I can say for sure: I know very well what it means have a shipyard! Guido was also lucky: he had always supported by an incredible staff, his right arm and his left arm: Attilio and Giacomo, two world-level professional, like him. What about Guido as a driver? Simply the best in the world: he won..
