A partnership between Orange1 and DreamOne Racing: the Veneto-based group’s “orange” cars will be technically managed by the Škoda structure, under the leadership of Team Manager Simone Miele.
The 2025 season marks a turning point for Simone Campedelli and Tania Canton, who will return as key players in the Italian Rally Championship, with an ambitious and innovative project: the birth of Orange1 Rally.
This new reality stems from the vision of Armando Donazzan, President of Orange1 Holding, and Campedelli himself, with the aim of strengthening the company’s commitment to motorsport and establishing a structure destined to become a reference point in the Italian rally scene.
Campedelli and Canton will tackle the season behind the wheel of one of the first Škoda Fabia RS Rally2 cars acquired by Orange1, which for this season will be technically managed by DreamOne Racing, the structure led by Simone Miele, recognized for its high-level preparation and competitiveness at the top levels of the WRC.
Another key novelty for 2025 is the multi-year partnership with Michelin, secured by Orange1 Rally for Campedelli, who, together with his entourage and technical staff, has chosen to run Michelin tires for CIAR 2025, a strategic decision aimed at maximizing performance. Additionally, Michelin has appointed Campedelli as a brand ambassador, further strengthening the collaboration.
Throughout the season, Campedelli and Canton will go up against the strongest crews in the national rally scene, aiming to be front-runners and consistently fight for overall victory.
OMP and BELL Racing will continue to support them, supplying innovative racing apparel and helmets equipped with wireless communication systems. Additionally, the Sicilian team ISLAND MOTORSPORT will once again aim for their dedicated classification.
Simone Campedelli – Orange1 Rally Driver
“Returning to CIAR with a project entirely our own is a great source of satisfaction. The birth of Orange1 Rally represents a fundamental step in our ten-year journey together, and being able to achieve it with President Armando Donazzan gives us both responsibility and motivation to give our all. This project is future-focused and goes beyond competition behind the wheel. For now, we are fully committed to this season with determination, aware that we can rely on a top-level technical package. We will give our maximum to fight at the top in every rally.“
Armando Donazzan – President of Orange1 Holding
“I am very pleased to launch this new adventure with the Orange1 Rally team and to share this project with DreamOne Racing, which will handle the technical side. Our goal is to push to the maximum and aim for the championship title. We know we are up against strong competition, but we are determined to compete at the highest level in every rally.”
Simone Miele – Team Manager
“Right from the start, we developed a great synergy with Simone, which allowed us to bring this project to life quickly. This is our first full-season entry in CIAR, but the experience we have gained over the years, including in the WRC, makes us confident that we can perform well.” With a new team and the same determination as always, Simone Campedelli and Tania Canton will take on each rally with the ambition of those aiming high: the goal is to fight for the title, pursuing a sporting dream waiting to be fulfilled.
