The leading Italian teams competing in the Powerboat P1 championship in 2008 swept the board at the 2008 Sports Awards of the Federazione Italiana Motonautica – the Italian governing body of powerboating. Double SuperSport champion Angelo Tedeschi – who also won the Italian and European titles – picked up a host of medals.

Tedeschi dominated powerboat racing’s SuperSport class last year, notching up his second successive title in Powerboat P1 with the #44 Conam Racing entry. The Italian shared the Mercury-powered Chaudron 41 with Maltese ace Aaron Ciantar, as they notched up a near-clean sweep of wins from last season’s 11 races.

Tedeschi also picked up the Sergio Carpentieri trophy, honouring the late, great Italian racer who tragically died during the German Grand Prix of the Sea weekend in 2007.
