Lamborghini motorsport boss Sanna departs
The 48-year-old executive at Lamborghini has been temporarily replaced by Rouven Mohr, who will handle the new responsibilities alongside his current role as the chief technical officer of the organization. The announcement of this change was made by the Italian manufacturer without providing specific reasons for the departure of the former executive, Sanna. Sanna, who played a crucial role in Lamborghini’s entry into high-level sportscar racing with the SC63 model developed in partnership with Ligier Automotive, successfully saw the project through after facing obstacles over the past few years. Although previous attempts to collaborate with Dallara Automobili and the Volkswagen group for an LMDh project were unsuccessful, the SC63 made its racing debut at the World Endurance Championship in Qatar. Despite a challenging start, the Lamborghini SC63 competed in the race, finishing 14th with drivers Mirko Bortolotti, Edoardo Mortara, and Daniil Kvyat. Sanna’s journey with Lamborghini began as a test driver in 2001 and eventually led to his leadership at Squadra Corse, overseeing successful projects like the Huracan GT3 and the Super Trofeo racer. His achievements also include winning titles as a driver in various championships with Lamborghini vehicles.
