In addition, whenever possible, the Museum invited former Alfa Romeo employees to give their live testimony of the object in question, people who had personally worked on the project in its day, as well as experts or fans. The Backstage events were also the perfect occasion to set some of the vehicles that had been standing still for decades back in motion and – in some cases – to take them back to the track.
