Nuvolari was loved not only by sportspeople, women and children. His feats were used by politicians of the fascist regime, as propaganda for the Italian nation. Also the poet Gabriele D’Annunzio was impressed by the achievements of Nivola (Nuvolari’s nickname), and in 1932 he welcomed him in the Vittoriale degli Italiani in Gardone Riviera.
