Quaranta chooses love and life: Amore & Vita

Ivan Quaranta will make the switch this winter from Universal Caffè-CB Immobiliare to Amore & Vita-McDonald's. The 32 year-old Italian from Crema will join the established team of Toscano Ivano Fanini, racing mostly Italian races.

"I have the desire to redeem myself, to demonstrate that I am still able to do something good," said Il Ghepardo to tuttobiciweb.com. "I know words don't mean much and I want to put myself immediately to work. The season's first race? In Donoratico [GP Etruschi], this is sure."
