Red Mucca Racing – not racing in April
Wed 04 Apr, 3:04 PM

Red Mucca’s Team Principal, Christiano Horner, announced earlier this week that Red Mucca will be absent on Round 3 of the Tri-C World Championship of TAG MASTERS.

AEIOU Racing Radio Network’ representative, Walt Shea, met with Red Mucca’s driver, Tony Sinicropi, in Milan, Italy, while waiting to board his flight to America earlier today.

AEIOU: “To the disappointment of thousands of fans, earlier this week, Christiano Horner officially announced that Red Mucca will not run the third round of the world championship of TAG MASTERS in Beaumont, California – did you have anything to do with that?

Sinicropi: “Absolutely not. Personally, I really want to run the third round, but I do have a contractual obligation with Red Mucca Racing Team and Red Mucca has certain other commitments made for that same weekend. I read in the paper last week while attending a fashion show in Rome that Red Mucca was pulling out of TAG MASTERS and that can not be further from the truth. We are very committed and in fact, Adriano Newey has high hopes for the revised kart we will have in May.”

AEIOU: “You mentioned other commitments, what are they?”

Sinicropi: “You may not be as familiar with it as you are with Tri-C TAG MASTERS, but there is a race in Long Beach taking place that weekend. With all honesty, I am not even 100% certain of the name (loud laugh). I think it is call Champcar or something like that. Anyways, it is a sort of promotional charity event for us. Our primary sponsor, Red Mucca wants to break into the American market so they have asked me to go out there to sign some autographs and take some pictures and things like that. It will be a big party!”

AEIOU: “And what about an announcement on your teammate. The fans have been anxiously waiting for an announcement and Red Mucca has yet to announce who will partner you for the rest of the season.”

Sinicropi: “We are not in a hurry to name our second driver. I think the team is focusing in making sure they can produce one competitive kart first and that is mine. Once that is established, they can get a second driver for the team.”

AEIOU: “Rumors are that the Chinese star, Blair Chang, is on pole position to take the second seat on the team, is that true?”

Sinicropi: “I can’t tell you that.”

AEIOU: “You mean you are unable to confirm that or you are not aware that Blair Chang is the favorite to land the drive?”

Sinicropi: “I think that in regards to team issues and I particularly, issues in regards to a second driver you need to speak with Mr. Horner.”

AEIOU: “What do you think about Blair Chang? Would you like to partner with him?”

Sinicropi: “I think he is a very good driver. He has an outstanding record. I think he would be an asset to the team. He obviously comes with a very strong reputation and sure, I wouldn’t mind partnering up with him. Is that what you wanted me to tell you?”

AEIOU: “Well, I just want you to tell me the true.”

Sinicropi: “That was the true.”

AEIOU: “What about rumors that you have been secretly dating Perris Hilton?”




Sinicropi: “(loud laugh) Where did you hear that or are you just making something up right now?”

AEIOU: “I didn’t hear, I just received an email with a picture of you and Perris at a night club in Monaco and the pictures indicate that you are both pretty involved.”

Sinicropi: “Well Walt. If these pictures are real than I guess you can assume that any relationship between myself and Perris are no longer a secret, right?”

AEIOU: “I see your point. So, are you confirming that and are you planning to see her when you arrive in America? I only ask you this because some may find difficult to fully concentrate in racing while dating Perris.”

Sinicropi: “That was the last call. They are calling me. I have to go now or else I will miss my flight. I enjoy chatting with you.”

AEIOU: “My pleasure Tony. Enjoy the Long Beach Grand Prix and please send my regards to Perris – that is if you happen to see her.”
