I'm sorry this is not the correct race...
1947 is correct...
#1 is a Ferrari but not a 159, #3 is indeed a Touring BMW 328... do you know the driver? #5 shouldn't be an 8C 2900 but it's an Alfa... and I don't know #9... can you prove me it's an Adler?
These cars (1,3,5,9) and the race are locked for you until your next reply!!
MPC

D-type · December 31, 2011, 06:50:44 AM

Don't lock the puzzle - there's too much for others to answer.

If not the 159, the ferrari is either a 125 or a 166 from later in the year when it got the 2 litre engine. I'll plump for 166
No idea on the BMW driver or Alfa model
The "Adler" simply looks like the prewar Adler streamlined coupe. I have photos in books but don't have a scanner.

Iluvatar · December 31, 2011, 06:56:32 AM

#9 shouldn't be an Adler, but the other cars are easy!
The puzzle is open again but don't give up!!

A coachbuilder for #5??
MPC

M630 · December 31, 2011, 08:24:18 AM

Renato Balestrero was 4 in this race with a Stanguellini : the number 6 ?

M630 · December 31, 2011, 08:25:07 AM

For the 5 : Touring ?

Iluvatar · December 31, 2011, 08:26:57 AM

Balestrero was third with a Stanguellini, but it isn't #6!
Touring is correct for #5!
MPC

M630 · December 31, 2011, 08:38:11 AM

Also in this race the AAC 815 of Enrico Beltracchini ... j don't see very well... the 11 ?

A few more guesses:
#6 Maserati
#7 Alfa Romeo
#10 Ferrari 125 Spyder Corsa
#11 Lancia Aprilia
#14 AAC 815

and the BMW was driven by Nino Rovelli

#14 is the Auto Avio 815!
Nino Rovelli is correct!
#6 and #7 are wrong and #10 too...
#11 can be an Aprilia... I don't know... you have to prove it!
