Alfa Romeo 4C will make a second UK appearance as Official Safety Car to the Silverstone round of the FIM World Superbike Championship this Sunday, following its UK debut earlier this month at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

The special liveried Alfa 4C features red, white and green colours of the Italian flag.

Damien Dally, Head of Brand at Alfa Romeo UK said: “Alfa Romeo is a proud sponsor of the FIM World Superbike Championship having been associated with the series for seven years now.

As we prepare to launch the Alfa 4C here in the UK, it’s fantastic to be able to showcase this car to the public for a second time as it takes to the prestigious Silverstone circuit.”

The 4C weighs just 895 kg with power coming from a 1.75-litre four-cylinder engine with 240 horsepower and 350 Nm of torque linked to a dual-clutch transmission, good for a 0-62mph sprint in 4.5 seconds.
