The Guardia di Finanza and customs officers intervened at the end of November, as the car with a Swiss license plate could not circulate in the European Community.
The year 2018 was not very happy for Andrea Iannone and the ending is even worse. The agency HANDLE announced that at the end of November customs officers in Como seized the car of the Abruzzo driver, a luxury Bentley worth 400 euros. The confiscation took place at Brogeda, the border crossing point with Switzerland. Andrea Iannone has lived in Lugano for a long time.
The reason for the seizure is the violation of the Istanbul Convention. The Bentley with Swiss license plates could circulate in the European Community without completing customs formalities for only six months, even if they were not consecutive. In addition, to be able to travel, the owner or a close relative must be present. Sports trainer Stefano Palasca was behind the wheel of the car. Andrea Iannone appealed the seizure of the vehicle.
