One notable addition is the dedicated race for historic cars, which now has its own identity and draws strong interest from enthusiasts and participants.

The entire route unfolds within the private grounds of the Il Ciocco Estate, on a technical and spectacular course designed to challenge the skills and strategy of every crew. At the same time, it offers fans the chance to experience the action up close in a safe and accessible setting.
