Representing RPM at the Motorsport Games 2019 in Rome!

It has been a pleasure to represent  RPM network  at the FIA Motorsport Games 2019 ( held in Rome and at the ACI Sport Vallelunga track from October 31st – November 3rd ) together with other companies and colleagues that are part of the network.
