Yes, the relocation of the monument to the Swiss Carlo Pedrazzini, opened December 12, 2008, on the corner of Pistoia Via Corso Felice Cavallotti in front alll'Automobil Club, is much more appropriate than now in a state of neglect that is near the former bridge Forlanini.
fact, that arrangement would still make sense if what remains of the bridge had been set up as expected after his killing in what was at that point, in dealing with the curve that led into the bridge that went off the road with Pedrazzini his car and killed himself.
The bronze monument of exquisite workmanship (according to the very low opinion of the writer) is part of the historical memory of Alexandria and its accommodation in the center will serve as a reminder of a time pioneer of motoring history. The circuit on which
Bordino Pedrazzini lost his life was known to the Alexandrian as the "Tour of the 32" because they were exactly 32 km of which was composed of the circuit.
some concern however, written on the plaque on the pedestal. Writing that reads: "Mr. Carlo Pedrazzini Locarno, leaning race intoxication ARD, April 22, 1934, gave twenty-five year life."
Considering that the relocation of the monument took place in the year of grace 2008, a written early twentieth century so full of rhetoric seems a bit retro ... but who knows, perhaps rightly so.
