To je neočekávaný dárek!
Влад Шайхнуров:
Hi, Ales!
So, my short vacation is over :(
Could you answer the questions I have an opinion on, but there's no proof.
1. Did Nuvolari and Borzacchini were entered by Scuderia Ferrari, not Alfa Corse (I mean 1930 event)?
2. Leif Snellman and Hans Etzrodt in their brilliant source wrote about prison adventures of Josef Brázdil before 1934 main race: "The Maserati trailer arrived with the new works 6C-34 car for Nuvolari and a private car, another 6C-34, bought from the Bologna factory by local car mechanic Josef Brázdil with money provided by his manager Štefan Marciš. In the early entry lists Brázdil was listed to drive an Alfa Romeo. As a driver Brázdil was a total novice. Contemporary magazines claim that the money for the car was in fact borrowed from Marciš' fiancиe but the engagement was broken off after a fight and the furious lady had now taken legal action to get her money back. On Wednesday when practice started both Josef Brázdil and his manager, unable to pay back the money, found themselves in jail. Nuvolari, who wanted to see both new Maseratis come to good use, and Chiron appealed to authorities to release Brázdil so he could take part in the Grand Prix, returning to jail after the race."
Perhaps I was inattentive, but I've not found any evidence in Czech newspapers.

Hi Vlad.
You have send me a poster from 1930 by Scuderia Ferrari, where is a list of races, which I think, should be events, where they started. And Brno is there. So I belive yes they were entered by Ferrari. Anyway, Ferrucio Testi was a leader of the team in Brno in 1930 and again in next years.
About Brazdil, yes, it true what is said and its also mentioned in czech newspapers. But nothing about Chiron and Nuvolari and their appeal to release Brazdil. And I doubt they actually did something about it.
