1981 Italian Formula 3 champion, who still kept links to the sport until his death from pancreatic and liver cancer. Lived in Massa, where he ran ClaraVox, a high-market top-end loudspeaker company. Eddy already had links to this industry as he was sponsored by Pioneer as a racer. His full name is Edgardo - not Eduardo - as is often written. Bianchi certainly had talent, but had to abandon his single-seater career when his funding run out just as he was developing in Formula 2.
