We are pleased to announce that Damiano Bigi, Marraffa driver since 1996, received the "Driver of the Year" award during the annual meeting of ANITA (National Association of Automotive Transport Companies).

The "Driver of the Year" award is a prestigious award that enhances the important role played by heavy vehicle drivers and promotes their image in the eyes of the public. The award was presented to Damiano Bigi by the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Matteo Salvini, giving further importance to this extraordinary achievement.
