His last activity was a little indoor kart track in Cinisello Balsamo (near Milano,nw).Now this place is owned by Mario Balotelli and Alex Caffi.
The Momo company was no longer his property since some years.Many says he loved too much that 333sp that ferrari itself dindt liked at all (was formerly a dallara ferrari powered).He did the develope of the car mostly left alone by company.The car sucked all his resources.
The interest of Maranello guys for Imsa serie is a story u probably already know...
The carrer of this pilot was cutted at its beginning by Cesare Fiorio,boss of lancia rally team during late 70s.
Giampiero was the winner after the disqualify of official lancias.Fiorio,as a real godfather, wanted him out at all after this.

this was btw his last racing car:

rip Giampiero.

RIP. I know Momo was bought by Key Safety Systems. Not sure what happened to the aftermarket business now.

I recall seeing him standing next to the "PENTHOUSE PET OF THE YEAR" some years ago in the pits at the Daytona 24. He was an approachable bloke with a million dollar smile. BTW he was smiling big time while standing next to the POTY!! RIP Mr. Moretti.
