2011 Eco Targa Florio

29th July 2011 Print

At the 2011 Eco Targa Florio, Ferrari will pay tribute to the Targa Florio and to its historic route with the Ferrari Tribute to the Targa Florio.
 
The new route and programme have been created to connect the history of this legendary race with the character, tastes and aromas of Sicily. The 2011 route will pay homage to tradition, retracing the historic route of the "Piccolo Circuito delle Madonie" from the start to the finish line.
 
So that entrants get a chance to marvel at Sicily's breathtaking beauty and to sample its wonderful food, a number of stops in the regularity trials have been planned. This means that the excitement of the race can be combined with the discovery of this wonderful region.
 
As at the historic revivals of the Mille Miglia and the Coppa Milano-Sanremo, modern and classic Ferraris will line up at the start and will open the regularity event.
 
Ferrari sport and sport-prototypes (manufactured from 1948 to 1977) are also eligible for the Eco Targa Florio Classic and entrants can choose which event they prefer to enter (the route and regularity trials will be exactly the same).
 
All Ferraris manufactured from 1948 to 2011 are eligible.
 
This year’s edition of the legendary road race takes place from Thursday, September 29th, to Saturday, October 1st.
 
It’s a three day event with the start in Cerda (PA, Italy), the historic Targa Florio starting point, with scrutineering on either Wednesday September 28th or the morning of Thursday September 29th. The prize-giving ceremony will be on Sunday, October 2nd at Castello Utveggio (PA, Italy.

The programme is unique in the style of Italia Classica, alternating driving on the most attractive roads imaginable with stops at the historic villa residences of important families in the Emilia and Veneto regions.
