Question
I know this is kind of a quirky thing to ask, but I'm just wondering: Murcielago is prounounced how? Is it like mercy-uh-lay-go or mercy-uh-log-o? Surely not your most intelligent or challenging question, but if you've got an answer, thanks in advance!

Answer
Thanks for the question.
Italy like other countries has regional and local dialects, so even if you were to ask Italians this question, the answer is likley to be different from them! I would say murchy-lago but whether this is "correct" or not I don't care too much, unless of course someone was to offer me one and I needed to ask properly for it...!
Regards,
Adam

I`m a big F1 fan and have been since the early 80s. I read weekly European specialist F1 press and keep on top of what`s happening in F1, such as results and testing, team politics, what drivers are saying etc. I`m especially a follower of the French Prost (formally Ligier) team and am also involved in karting and sports car racing in England.

Experience

Writing accounts of the performance of the (then)Ligier team during Grand Prix meetings. Organinsing karting competitions for 300+ drivers and of course being an Allexperts Formula One expert
