Patricia Salvioni is a girl of Italian origin who lives in Villa Regina, in the province of Rio Negro. The paternal grandfather was originally from Pescia and the father Silvano passed on to his daughter the passion for engines, having competed in various categories both on two and four wheels, from karting to speedway to enduro motorcycles.

Love for Italy

Patricia's Italian origins date back both to her paternal grandfather, from Pescia in the province of Pistoia, and to her Friulian great-grandparents. While her maternal great-grandmother was from Lombardy. Patricia has always felt an unconditional love for Italy, which she strengthened when she started studying the language by attending the University for Foreigners of Siena. You have a Degree in Foreign Trade and a Masters in Public Policy. Patricia is currently president of the Tuscan youth community of Villa Regina.

Passion for engines

Following in her father's footsteps in motorsports, Patricia started at 12 with the go-kart, moving to the 2004cc category in 200 and competing in the 125cc class the following year. From 2007 to 2020 she returned to the 200cc class to then blame the long stop due to the pandemic and unfortunately the cancellation of the category. For this reason, together with her husband, who is also a pilot, they decided to register for the championship Gran Turismo Pista Neuquino, in which cars with covered wheels divided by classes participate. Patricia will participate with a Fiat 600, a model to which she is particularly linked since it was given to her by her parents at the age of 15 and with which she attended numerous regularity competitions.
