Gaggia Sponsors Race Team !!
Welcome to a mid season report on the progress of the Gaggia Sponsored, Sports 2000 racing team. If this comes as a surprise to you don’t worry, the management are not spending the company’s fortune, merely providing some benefit in kind to both the business and a small race team. For those of you who have ever attended the British Grand Prix or Superbike GP you will know how difficult it is to get a decent cup of coffee. Gaggia has solved this problem to the BRSCC Sports 2000 Series by providing a mobile Barrista bar, ably manned by Richard Norman that is introducing the racing fraternity to the joys of good Espresso, Americano etc
