    No the Trofeo Lorenzo Bandini is not an award named in my honour but a tribute to the leading Italian driver of the 60s who burned to death during the Monaco Grand Prix in 1967.

    The trophy originated in 1992 after the 25th death anniversary of Bandini and is now organized annually by the council of Bandini’s home town in Brisighella, Italy. This award is not presented for a tournament or a race and the trophy is awarded to drivers for their dedication to motorsports, spirit of competition and achievements.

    former winners:
    Lewis Hamilton 2010
    Sebastian Vettel 2009
    Robert Kubica 2008
    Felipe Massa 2007
    Mark Webber 2006

    Michael Schumacher 2003
