Thomas Krasonis in Italy aiming for more podiums!
Vallelunga… time for Thomas Krasonis! The first Greek professional racing driver is already in Italy, where this weekend will be held the second race weekend of this year’s NASCAR Euro Series championship.
The Autodromo di Vallelunga welcomes again the gladiators of the NASCAR Euro Series for the NASCAR GP Italy. The 4,085-metre-long track, located near Rome, is preparing to host the Italian race for the sixth time, with the “tiffosi” eagerly awaiting the sound of the V8 engines!
The opening round of the 2025 season in Valencia was… dreamlike for Thomas Krasonis. The 23-year-old celebrated the first victories of his career in both PRO and OPEN, and became the first Greek winner in the NASCAR Euro Series.
Thomas Krasonis will again participate in both the PRO and OPEN divisions of the NASCAR Euro Series this year, driving in all races the number “13” Chevrolet Camaro of the Championship’s top team, the Belgian PK Carsport.
Supporters of Thomas Krasoni’s effort in the NASCAR Euro Series are Costamare Shipping Company and the “Dodoni” Dairy Industry, while medical coverage is provided by the Athens Medical Group.
