Maserati Cash&Rocket Tour 2018

Forty teams, of which five on board Maseratis and 80 women with high international profiles who took turns at the wheel on a tour that travelled the west coast of the USA, from San Francisco to Las Vegas, via Santa Barbara and Los Angeles. This was the realization of Julie Brangstrup Watts project - founder of the Cash & Rocket Tour - for the 2018 edition. The 80 drivers travelled 1,160 km in 40 supercars. For this charity event Maserati lined up 5 vehicles with 13 drivers from 5 continents (America, Asia, Africa, Oceania, and Europa): the top model Ashley Graham, with the journalist-activist-influencer Noor Tagouri; the fashion influencer and icon Lena Perminova with her sister Alexandra Kirienko and fashionist Leila Yavari; the influencer Rachel Zeilic with the Spanish top model Nieves Alvarez and the influencer-fashion designer-author Gala Gonzalez; the model Arizona Muse with the actress Cody Horn, and the Chinese team of Yao Lu, Xiaomin Chu and Xiangnan Dong. The Cash & Rocket Tour convoy collected funds for three charitable organizations: Shine On in Sierra Leone, Sumbandila in South Africa and Art of Elysium. Thanks to the commitment of the participants, sponsors, and the charity auction held at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, more than 500,000 dollars were raised.
