In September 2013, Italian automaker Lamborghini introduced a live-streaming racing community to target aspirational consumers and racing enthusiasts. The new service went live at the Sept. 21-22 the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo race at the Nürburgring racecourse in Germany. The brand provided dedicated fans with moment-to-moment video and multimedia pertaining to the weekend’s races. Rather than inventing new content, finding ways to bring traditional events to social media can help Lamborghini bridge the gap between young and old consumers.
