Beneath the shadow of Superga, the Vittorio Guarise Plaque stands as a stark reminder of a life tragically cut short. Vittorio Guarise, born November 17, 1916, was a motorcycle racer. He participated in the Sassi-Superga race. The Vittorio Guarise Plaque, etched in stone, tells his story. It reads, “Here Vittorio Guarise, born 17-11-1916 – died 1-5-1947. Participating in the classic motorcycle race Sassi-Superga, he paid with his life for his daring sporting prowess.” The plaque marks the spot where Guarise’s audacious spirit met its untimely end. He died on May 1, 1947, during the Sassi-Superga race. This dangerous course, winding up the hill towards the Basilica di Superga, claimed his life. The plaque serves not only as a memorial to Guarise. It is also a sobering testament to the risks inherent in motorsport, particularly on the challenging Sassi-Superga route. The Vittorio Guarise Plaque is a poignant tribute. It reminds us that even in the pursuit of passion and glory, the fragility of life can be exposed in a fleeting moment.
