San Marino 2004, IMOLA
My photos from the football match played at Calcio Stado Moragagni, Forli (BO), Italia, 21-4-2004. Nazionale Piloti v. Nazionale Brasil 1994 Mondiale. All proceeds to the Ayrton Senna Foundation. Paid attendance was over 7,000.
I was extremely honoured to play with the Brazilian team that won the 1994 World Cup in USA. This opportunity was given to me for my work to help bring the Brazilians to play in honour of their fallen comrade, Ayrton Senna.
The Nazionale Piloti (NP) team consisted of some of the finest drivers in the world. This was a true test for them and a thrill to play with their heroes. The NP team included Max Biaggi, Fernando Alonso, Antonio Pizzonia, Felipe Massa, Rubens Barrichello, Michael Schumacher, Jarno Trulli, Riccardo Patrese, Ivan Capelli, Gabriele Tarquini, Giancarlo Fisichella, Gianmaria Bruni and Giorgio Pantano.
The Brazilians were captain by Carlos Verri, known worldwide as Dunga, with Leonardo, keeper Taffarel, Jorginho, Marcio Santos, Antonio Careca (who partnered with Diego Maradona during their incredible scudetto run at Napoli), Ricardo Rocha (an absolute comedian) and Aldair.
