Dedicated to the memory of Leonardo "Leo" Barbosa
1981-2010
Leonardo "Leo" Barbosa was a Brazilian born in Passo Fundo.
He started in GP2 as pilot for hotlap leagues, with great success.
Later he created his own championship and soon became
also the organizer of FGP2, where he gave his most important contribution.
Under his command, FGP2 became the most successful national
GP2 championship ever heard and the only one still active after so
many years all over the world. Leonardo was a lawyer
and passionate about racing, especially rally and tourism.
He also loved classic rock in its various forms, especially
progressive rock.
Leo made a solid contribution to the world of GP2 and
a legion of friends. We'll miss him. |
