Safilo on the podium in Turkish Road Race Grand Prix

Safilo Group has proudly collected numerous wins at the Turkish Grand Prix, the third race of the Road Race World Championship 2006. Carrera sunglasses, chosen by the most promising riders, continue to gain victory on the podiums of the most exciting races.

In just his third Moto GP race, Lcr Honda rider Casey Stoner, conquered a brilliant second place at the Turkish Grand Prix, and is now in 4th position in the Moto GP class overall standing, with 41 points.

Meanwhile, Spaniard Hector Barbera, also a Carrera testimonial, conquered second place in 250 cc and is now at 4th place in the overall standing of his category, with 44 points.

Both riders wear the Flag 1 model of the Carrera sunglasses collection, developed by designer Enzo Sopracolle and inspired by the the 'Heritage' theme, the original Carrera spirit, with the strong style content that made it so successful in the 1970s. The aviator frame of this essential model is underlined by slim temples with the unmistakeable 'C' icon and by the vertical metal trim set at its sides, on its way to becoming the new, timeless style icon.
