Racing History[]

Filippo was born on June 10, 1983. He started mountain bike racing in 1997 and quickly fell in love with the sport. As junior racer from 1999-2001, he posted several great results. He got 3rd place in the 1999 SRAM Sea Otter Classic, which had 150 racers, and he was the 1999 Sand Blaster Champion with 3 out of 5 victories. In 2001 he was the Junior Expert State Champion with 5 out of 8 victories. In 2002, he moved up to pro class and his focus was to make it into the 2004 Brazilian Olympic Team. In 2002 he won the Florida sunshine State games. That same year he also got 2nd Overall in the "Ford No Boundaries Mountain Bike Series" and 15th Place at the Norba Nationals in West Virginia. Halfway through his 2002 season, his family went through a difficult time and he was forced to retire from racing to help them out as much as possible. 8 years later, he was lucky enough to have friends who knew he still had untapped potential in cycling. In August 2010 he began training again and did his first race back in Cat. 2 and won it. After that he got focused on getting back to racing full-time. In 2010-2011 he got 2nd overall in the State Series with 2 wins out of 8 races. He also got 1st overall in the 2011 Coconut Cup with 4 out of 6 victories in Cat. 2. In 2011 he moved back up the Pro Class again and won 3 Pro Races in the La Rooota Series. In 2012 he has set his goal of racing in the 2012 Pan American Games.
