Full Name The Crusaders
Base Vatican City
Founder(s) Valentino Nicchi
Team Principal(s) Emanuele Nicchi
Technical Director Marcos Lunoz


The Crusaders is a motor racing team founded by Valentino Nicchi in 1991 to compete in Life GP and is currently run by his son.

Historical

1991-1992 - Life GP

After 2 guest appearances in '91, the team prepared for it's first full season. Nicchi immediately decided to pour almost all off the team's money into engine reliability. Because of this the car lacked qualifying pace and failed to make the grid for the first 9 races, by then Nicchi got bored of the series and after the Suiss SuperPrix where he amazingly managed to retire with the most reliable car, he moved to Indycar. He was replaced by Cameron Maroon who failed to qualify for any more races that year. The team's Life GP effort shut down after that year.

RWRS

2016

IFRC

The team made it's first appearance in the last ever race organised by the Rejects of LFS Commission, the non-championship Aston 24 Hours of 2015 fielding an FZ50 with Nikolai Nurmovitsch, Jan van der Maeyede and Jasper Lerby at the wheel. The car was running in 2nd until Nurmovitsch spun off after 87 laps.

Under the new rules for 2016 the team managed to secure a full time entry, with Cosworth engines rebadged as Vauxhalls and a supply of Yokohama tyres. Raffaella Nicchi and Adélaïde Voeckler were the drivers, creating an all-female line up, the first in RWRS history. Nicchi would leave the series after 1 round while Josh Carlisle replaced her and proved a consistent point-scorer. Voeckler's season was dogged by 2 injuries.

F1RDS

The team took over Kingfisher Racing's entry due to their withdrawal over the owner's ill health, but kept their signed drivers, Matt Grove and Manuel Riva. They had a strong start to the year.

Other series

The team also entered the Lupo Cup with newcomer Adolfo Moretti and entered their second year in the RTCC with a new driver, Bill Phenett and a new car, the Renault Laguna. They also fielded a Toyota in the RTSS for Jayleen Mori. Additionally they took part in RRT² (fielding Mori's father) and the PRC.

Junior Team

The Crusaders Junior Team is a program designed to find racing stars of the future.
