2004: Mario Andretti and Me
or
Two Affluent Istrians in California, USA

Both born during the terrible year of 1940 in Istria and surviving WWII in fear and poverty, they finally meet for the first time at the Infineon race track in California 64 years later.


Getting ready for the white-knuckles drive around the track, Mario driving and Pino holding on for dear life
