Slot a Lot
Six encounters. Six voices. Six brands that shaped the history of Italian motorsport. At Passione Engadina 2026, we don’t only celebrate the cars, we celebrate the people who truly lived them.
Slot a Lot was born from this idea: to pause and listen to authentic testimonies. Stories of individuals whose paths crossed a brand at the decisive moment that changed everything. People who still carry with them that sound, that scent, that unmistakable character.
