Alfa Romeo may not be the loud and proud carmaker it used to be, but this year it has something to celebrate: it's 90 years since a cloverleaf badge was first painted on to an Alfa.
The first Alfa to wear the Quadrifoglio Verde was Ugo Sivocci's racer in the 1923 Targa Florio. It was meant as a lucky charm: Sivocci had a career like Mark Webber's, dogged by terrible luck.
After a series of second placings and mechanical failures, the superstitious Alfa Corse driver painted the white square and green cloverleaf on his car. He immediately went on to win the Florio, his first victory.
