1977 - Bianchi Campione del Mondo

Racing has always been very important to Bianchi. The first world champion title won by Giovanni Tommaselli in 1899 on the track for Bianchi was just as important as the title of Fausto Coppi in 1953. So in Milan Fausto Coppi's title was celebrated with the Campione del Mondo model, which was replaced by the Specialissima model in about 1960. 20 years later, the Campione del Mondo model was available again, in parallel and as a supplement to the Specialissima.


Celeste belongs to Bianchi and Bianchi is (known for) Celeste. But there is also silver paint on their top of the line models. And as you can see here, it´s not looking less iconic.
