GPVWC Superleague career

Stealth GP

2002

Consiglio’s GPVWC career began in early 2002 at the tender age of 16. With the league using Mircoprose Grand Prix 3, the season was already up to Round 4 of the Championship by the time Joe registered in early April.

However almost instantly Consiglio's speed caught the eye of team manager Luc Lissens (MaMa Racing) in a private test session prior to the San Marino Grand Prix at Imola. He was quickly signed as first driver but in a bizarre turn of events the team folded only days before the event. Stealth GP stepped in, retaining all MaMa’s assets, including the promising 16 year old driver.

On his debut Consiglio hauled the underpowered Stealth Honda all the way up to P2 on the grid. The race itself featured heavy rain but Joe brought the car home in a creditable 4th after completing his first 100% distance Grand Prix.
