The Italian's career in motorsport began in 1976, racing a car he and a number of his friends had built in the Formula Monza series. The car, however, achieved very little success and two years later Alboreto moved up to Formula Three. Formula Three, also called Formula 3 or F3, is a class of open-wheel formula racing. Wins in the Italian Formula Three championship and a European Formula Three Championship crown in 1980 paved the way for the Italian's entrance into Formula One with the Tyrrell team.

Career
1976-1981: Junior Formulae
Michele Alboreto started his career in 1976 racing in Formula Monza with a car he and his friends built, known as the "CMR". The car itself proved to be uncompetitive and in 1978 Alboreto, now in a more competitive March, moved over to Formula Italia where he began to take race wins. March Engineering was a Formula One constructor and manufacturer of customer racing cars from Britain. Two years later Alboreto moved up to Formula Three, racing in a Euroracing-entered March in both the European and Italian series.

On his debut Formula Three season, Alboreto finished 6th and 2nd respectively in the two championships, scoring three wins in the Italian series.
1980 would prove to be the Italian's final, and most successful, year in Formula Three where he took the European crown and finished third in the Italian championship, taking five wins between the two series. An appearance in the British Championship were also made in 1980. The British Formula Three Championship is a national motor racing championship that takes place primarily in the United Kingdom with a small number of events in mainland
Alboreto's European title earned him a move to Formula Two, a feeder series for Formula One - effectively what the GP2 Series is in the current era - with the Minardi team. Formula Two, abbreviated to F2, was a type of Formula racing. For the article about the Asian version of the GP2 series see GP2 Asia Series.

1980-1983: Sportscars
Despite his career in open wheel racing, Alboreto was chosen by Lancia to be part of their official squad in the World Championship for Makes, running in round which did not conflict with his other races.

Alboreto again ran a partial schedule in 1981 even though he was also running Formula Two and Formula One. The 1981 World Endurance Championship for Drivers and Makes season was the 29th FIA World Sportscar Championship. This season included his first participation in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The 24 Hours of Le Mans ( 24 Heures du Mans) is a sports car endurance race held annually since near the town of Le Mans, Sarthe, He earned an eighth place finish overall, second in class, and was the highest finishing Lancia. He followed this with his first win in the championship, at the Six Hours of Watkins Glen with co-driver Riccardo Patrese. Riccardo Patrese (born April 17 1954) is an Italian former Racing driver, who raced in Formula One from to. Alboreto finished the year 52nd in the Drivers' Championship, the highest ranked Lancia driver.
When Lancia chose to move to a new class of competition with the Lancia LC1 as the championship concentrated solely on endurance races in 1982, further success came for Alboreto. The Lancia LC1 was a sports car run by Lancia under the Group 6 regulations in the World Sportscar Championship and 24 Hours of Le Mans Endurance racing is a form of motorsport which is meant to test the durability of equipment and endurance of participants The 1982 World Endurance Championship season was the 30th FIA World Sportscar Championship season A small schedule for the championship, as well as an emphasis on European circuits allowed him to compete in every race that year. Although the LC1 suffered from mechanical problems on its debut, Alboreto and teammate Patrese were able to rebound to earn a victory at the 1000 km of Silverstone. Teo Fabi joined the duo for the 1000 km of the Nürburgring, where they once again earned a victory. Teodorico Fabi (born March 9, 1955) better known as Teo Fabi, is an Italian former Racing driver. He was not able to repeat his previous success at Le Mans when the LC1's engine failed, and was unable to complete an event at Spa when the car broke in the closing laps. A third victory was earned by Alboreto and new teammate Piercarlo Ghinzani at their home circuit, Mugello. Piercarlo Ghinzani (born January 16, 1952 in Riviera d'Adda, Lombardy) is a former Racing driver from Italy who currently Mugello Circuit ( Autodromo Internazionale di Mugello) is a race track located in the Mugello region of Italy near Florence. The final two races of the World Championship season had Alboreto's car eliminated from contention due to accidents. At the end of the season, he had secured fifth in the Drivers' Championship.
Lancia changed classes and cars once again in 1983 World Sportscar Championship season, but Alboreto remained as one of the team's primary drivers. The 1983 World Endurance Championship season was the 31st FIA World Sportscar Championship season He brought the new Lancia LC2 to a ninth place finish in its debut at the 1000 km of Monza, but the new car struggled to finish the next few races of the season. The Lancia LC2 (sometimes referred to as a Lancia-Ferrari) was a series of Racing cars built by Italian automobile manufacturer Lancia and powered by engines His entries would not finish another race until round five, where he earned eleventh. While Lancia chose to skip later rounds of the championship, he would not return to the team in order to concentrate fully on his commitments to Formula One. His troubles with the LC2 and early departure from the team earned him only two points in the championship.
Formula One
1981-1983: Tyrrell
At the age of 24, Alboreto made his Formula One debut at the 1981 San Marino Grand Prix for the Cosworth-powered Tyrrell Racing team, replacing Ricardo Zunino after the Argentine failed to impress team boss Ken Tyrrell.

Results from the 1981 Formula One Dutch Grand Prix held at Circuit Zandvoort on August 30, 1981.
In comparison to the previous season, Alboreto had a more successful 1982 campaign. The 1982 Formula One season was the 33rd FIA Formula One World Championship season The Italian took the first podium of his Grand Prix career at Imola and, at the final round in Las Vegas, Alboreto took his first Grand Prix win. The 1982 San Marino Grand Prix was the fourth race of the 1982 Formula One World Championship. The 1982 Las Vegas Grand Prix was a Formula One race held on September 25, 1982 in Las Vegas Nevada.

Despite a win in Detroit, registered as the last win for a Cosworth DFV-powered car after Nelson Piquet's leading Brabham suffered a rear tyre deflation in the closing stages, Alboreto failed to finish in the points consistently and, with only one further points finish at Zandvoort, the Italian finished the season with ten points and down in twelfth position.

In 1986 Ferrari's new car, the F1/86, proved to be slower and less reliable than its predecessor as the Alboreto retired from a total of nine races: only two of those retirements are counted as driver error while the remaining seven were mechanical failures. The 1986 Formula One season was the 37th FIA Formula One World Championship season The Ferrari F1/86 was a Formula One car created by Scuderia Ferrari for use in the 1986 Formula One season.

The Italian finished the year in seventh overall with 17 points, 13 points behind his team-mate.
The 1988 season would be Alboreto's final year with Ferrari. The 1988 Formula One season was the 39th FIA Formula One World Championship season With the McLarens of Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost dominating the season, the Ferrari team only managed a single win during the year at Monza which Berger won from Alboreto in second place.

After a disappointing '88 season with Ferrari, the team refused to offer the Italian a new contract and so Alboreto looked elsewhere for a drive. In July that year, he received an offer from Frank Williams, head of the Williams team. Sir Francis Owen Garbatt Williams CBE (born April 16 1942 is founder and manager of the WilliamsF1 Formula One racing team Later that year, Alboreto had not received any word from Williams and soon requested confirmation of his seat at the team. Williams replied by saying that "he wanted him" and "not to move".

1989: Tyrrell and Larrousse
A lack of a drive had left Alboreto in a difficult situation and he later admitted he contemplated retirement - an option of which his family were very much in favour. Formula One Lola chassis Larrousse & Calmels commissioned a car from Lola and the result was the LC87 a car designed by Eric Broadley and Ralph [3] Soon enough, however, he was offered a drive at his former employer Tyrrell, which he accepted. Thanks to Alboreto's Malboro backing, the team managed to fund his wages. Marlboro is a brand of Cigarette made by Philip Morris USA (a branch of Altria) within the US and by Philip Morris International (now separate [4] The relationship between Alboreto and team manager, Ken Tyrrell, soon turned sour. Ken Tyrrell ( May 3, 1924 &ndash August 25 2001) was a British Auto racing driver and At the Monaco Grand Prix, Alboreto was told to drive the older Tyrrell, the 017, due to the newer 018 not being completed. The 1989 Monaco Grand Prix was a Formula One race held at Monaco on May 7, 1989. [4] Team-mate Jonathan Palmer was chosen to drive the new monoshock 018.

[4] The result was Alboreto boycotting the Thursday practice session. [4] This lack of professional behaviour did not impress the team, and finishing in fifth position during the race did not help the 32-year-old's cause.
By the French Grand Prix, Ken Tyrrell had found some Camel sponsorship for the race and told Alboreto to end his personal sponsorship deal with Malboro,[5] a rival company to Camel. The 1989 French Grand Prix was a Formula One race held at Paul Ricard on July 9, 1989. Camel is a brand of Cigarettes that was introduced by American company R Alboreto refused and quit the team, and was replaced by up and coming Frenchman Jean Alesi. Jean Alesi (born Giovanni Alesi June 11, 1964) is a French racing driver of Italian origins Alesi enjoyed a successful first Grand Prix in which he finished fourth. [5]
Alboreto soon lost his Malboro sponsorship as well after the company refused to find him another drive for the rest of the 1989 season. [6] He was, however, soon hired by the French Larrousse team for the German Grand Prix onwards. The 1989 German Grand Prix was a Formula One race held at Hockenheimring on July 30, 1989. In an uncompetitive car, he failed to score a single point for the rest of the season. During qualifying for the Hungarian Grand Prix the Italian cut one of the chicanes and broke two of his ribs in the process. The 1989 Hungarian Grand Prix was a Formula One race held at Hungaroring on August 13, 1989.

[6] After competing the year for two teams, Alboreto finished the year eleventh in the Drivers' Championship with six points.
1990-1992: Footwork
1990 saw Alboreto move to the Arrows team, which was in the process of being sold to sponsor Footwork. Footwork Arrows was the name of a Formula One Motor racing team competing during the mid-1990s The 1990 Formula One season was the 41st FIA Formula One World Championship season Arrows Grand Prix International was a Formula One team active from 1977 to 2002 Footwork Arrows was the name of a Formula One Motor racing team competing during the mid-1990s It was seen mainly as a "transition year" for him, as the chassis was in its second year and severe uncompetitiveness would be expected. Despite this, the 33-year-old finished in the top ten a number of times and only retired three times. Alboreto finished the season, however, as one of 21 drivers who failed to score a point.
Footwork secured Porsche works engines for 1991 and sponsorship from Japan, as the Footwork company completed its takeover of the team. Porsche has been successful in many branches of Motorsport, scoring a total of more than 28000 victories of which most have been scored by the The 1991 Formula One season was the 42nd FIA Formula One World Championship season For a topic outline on this subject see List of basic Japan topics. The package did not, however, live up to its expectations as it failed to qualify a number of times. Soon the overweight and unreliable Porsche engines were replaced by Hart-supplied Cosworth engines for the rest of the season, the short-term fix not improving the team's competitiveness. Brian Hart Ltd, also known as Hart and Hart Racing Engines was a motor racing Engine manufacturer that participated in 157 Formula One This would be Alboreto's second season in succession that he failed to score a point.
Thanks to Footwork's Japanese connections the team received a supply of Mugen Honda V10 engines for 1992.

With a season total of six points, the 35-year-old finished the year tenth overall.
1993-1994: Scuderia Italia and Minardi
Alboreto joined Italian team Scuderia Italia, which had enjoyed a number of successes in its short history, most notably when Andrea de Cesaris and JJ Lehto had scored podium positions at the 1989 Canadian Grand Prix and 1991 San Marino Grand Prix respectively. Minardi was an Automobile racing team and constructor founded in 1979 by Giancarlo Minardi.

The 1991 San Marino Grand Prix was a Formula One race held at Imola on April 28, 1991. At the start of 1993, however, the team moved away from its Dallara-built chassis and onto Lolas, a move considered "disastrous" by many Grand Prix journalists.

At the end of the season, he decided to retire from Grand Prix racing, with a record of 194 starts and five Grand Prix wins to his name.
