Evening everyone
A few Formula 1 fans have heard of Teo Fabi, who was very much the 1980s version of Jarno Trulli, achieving poles and high grid placings in subpar machinery. Fewer still have heard of Teo's younger brother, who was once touted as a future Formula 1 star, but whose career foundered in the early 80s and ended abruptly after a family tragedy. Nevertheless, Corrado Fabi is an Osella legend and now he's the subject of our latest GPR Driver Profile!
Our profile maestro Rob Dylan has painted a vivid picture of the younger Fabi, through his glittering junior career, to his Osella stint and his last-gasp shot at F1 stardom with Brabham, which you can read right here today!

Re: Driver Profile: Corrado Fabi
Is this re-profiling of drivers from the old site going to become a regular thing?

Re: Driver Profile: Corrado Fabi
Thanks for this. I enjoyed reflecting again on the career of a guy I followed in F2 and thought was headed for F1 stardom. Oh well...
I started supporting Emmo in 1976 (3 points )....missed 75, 74, 73, 72...
