Italian term or phrase: del raid
La ditta X che in India condivide con la ditta Y le proprie concessionarie nonche` alcune attivita` industriali, e` uno dei principali sostenitori del raid. Infatti l'India ospitera` il primo Gran premio di Formula 1 e non e` un mistero che la Ferrari, da qui a qualche anno, abbia in programma lo sbarco anche su questo mercato.

I was wondering if it is a typo?
