"Switzerland still has a lot to offer motorsport"
Who said that?
That was Ronny Kessel, the boss of the Swiss racing team KESSEL RACING from Grancia near Lugano. KESSEL's origins date back to 1971, when Loris Kessel (d. 2010), Ronny's father, began servicing and developing road and racing cars, and then trading in sports and luxury cars. Today, KESSEL is a dealer for Ferrari, Maserati, Bentley, and Pagani, and sells used, high-priced sports and racing cars. From Bugattis to Formula 1 Ferraris, everything is included. Alongside his business, Loris Kessel continued to be a racing driver. Among other things, he drove for the British RAM RACING team in Formula 1 in 1976 and 1977, and he also participated in hillclimb races and rallies. In 1993 he finished seventh at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in a Porsche 962.
In 2000, he founded the racing team "Loris Kessel Racing Car," with which he participated in the Ferrari Challenge and the FIA GT3 European Championship. The name was later changed to KESSEL RACING.
After his father's death in 2010, his son Ronny took over the company and, among other things, expanded it into Europe's largest Ferrari dream world. Today, the KESSEL Group includes a global motorsports division active in GT (including the Blancpain Endurance Series and the Blancpain GT Series) and classic car championships, the aforementioned sports car sales division, and a renowned restoration department.
The current Ferrari 458 was used in this livery in the "International GT-Open" racing series and in the "Blancpain GT Sports Club." The CARRERA model represents the GT-Open car.
