Career

Driver

Guerrini debuted as a driver in the FIA Alternative Energies Cup, reserved for hybrid and endothermic vehicles, in 2009, together with co-driver Andrea Gnaldi Coleschi.[3] In 2010, Guerrini obtained 3rd place in the Italian championship standings and 5th place in the world championship won by the French driver Raymond Durand.[4]

The following year, together with co-driver Emanuele Calchetti on an Alfa Romeo MiTo, he finished second both in the world and in the Italian championships, won by Massimo Liverani,[5] and repeated the same result in 2012[6] and in 2013, when with Emanuele Calchetti he won the Hi-Tech Ecomobility Rally in Athens.[7] In 2014, together with Isabelle Barciulli, Guerrini gained another second place in the World Cup and third place in the Italian championship.[8]

Co-driver

In the 2015 season Guerrini took part in the championships as a co-driver, together with driver Nicola Ventura on an Abarth 500, finishing at second place in the world championship after Thierry Benchetrit and winning the Italian championship ex-aequo with Valeria Strada.[9][10].

In the 2016 season Ventura and Guerrini on a Renault Zoe passed to the category reserved for purely electric cars and they won the World Cup.[11] In 2017 Guerrini won the FIA Electric and New Energies Championship, which joined both the previous hybrid and purely electric categories.[2]

Travels

"Turin-Beijing" Fiat Marea at the Bologna Motor Show in 2008.

Guido Guerrini is also a car traveler, the first person to go from Europe to China covering the whole route by a gas-fuelled car.[12][13]

The project, called Torino-Pechino, la macchina della pace (Turin-Beijing, the peace machine), was organized in 2008: overall, Guerrini and Andrea Gnaldi Coleschi (born 27 October 1978 in Arezzo, Italy),[14] covered 25,852 km (16,064 mi) using a 1999 Fiat Marea 1.6 16V from the seat of the 2006 Winter Olympics (in Turin) to the seat of the 2008 Summer Olympics (in Beijing) and returning to Italy.[15][16][17] The trip started on 6 July 2008 and passed through 17 countries to finish on 21 September 2008, and used LPG for fuel for 95% of the journey.[12][13][18][19] The project is described in the 2008 book Aregolavanti (Always Forward).[20]

In winter 2011, together with Emanuele Calchetti, he traveled from Rome to Volgograd with a gas-fuelled Gonow pick-up, crossing Eastern Europe, Moldova, Transnistria, and Ukraine.[21] This experience originated the travel book Via Stalingrado (Stalingrad Street, 2011).[22]

Among his many other car travels, Guerrini reached the extremes of Europe (North Cape, Istanbul, Gibraltar), and completed an expedition to the Caspian Sea through the Caucasian republics in 2010,[23] another travel to Volgograd in December 2013 and January 2014 on an Iveco Daily with a mixed system methane-diesel,[24], the Arezzo-Chernobyl on a methane-propelled Peugeot Expert in the following winter[25] and the Milan-Astana on an LPG Seat Altea in 2016.[26].

In june 2018 he started a new "Turin-Beijing" project on a diesel-methane propelled Toyota Hilux[27][28].
