Description

A superb and rare photo of the great
Silvio Grassetti
on the magnificent
Benelli 250cc four cylinder Grand Prix racer
in the paddocks before the start of racing begins.
The Benelli four cylinder Grand Prix racers were very complicated but indeed highly successful in racing. In the 1960s several great riders competed with this wonderful machines in the world championships: Tarquinio Provini who won the Italian Championship with the
250 in
1965 and Renzo Pasolini who won the Championship with the 250 as well as the
350 in
1968 and 1969.
But also riders like Mike Hailwood and Jarno Saarinen rode the Benelli four GP racer. It was made in three versions: 250cc, 350cc and the most rare one: a 420cc which was ridden by Mike Hailwood on a few occasions.
