Biography
After World War I, Marinoni joined the Alfa Romeo racing team as a mechanic. He served as co-driver with Giuseppe Campari in the 1924 French Grand Prix. In an Alfa Romeo 6C, Marinoni won the 1927 Coppa Ciano, as well as three Spa 24 Hours in a row: in 1928 with Boris Ivanowski, in 1929 with Robert Benoist, and in 1930 with Pietro Ghersi. Marinoni was the chief mechanic and test driver of Scuderia Ferrari between 1934 and 1937. He traveled with the team to New York City for the 1936 Vanderbilt Cup.[3] He died when he crashed an Alfa Romeo 158/159 Alfetta in a truck while testing for the expected 1943 season.[2]
