GIRO D’ITALIA 1934 - COPPA LITTORIO
Not to be confused with Giro d’Italia
Description Road course used for «Giro Automobilistico d’Italia - Coppa d’Oro del Littorio» (Italian Car Tour - Golden Littorio Cup), a very hard race run from May 26th to June 2nd 1934. I have no more info.
Location Roma - Messina - Milano - Roma
RM - Roma - Lazio
Location The course goes nearly all over Italy. My map shows present borders and it seems the race went also to Slovenia: this is not true, because in that period border were different. Even regional borders changed and my map shows present ones.
