SAN PIERO A SIEVE (1967)
Not to be confused with Mugello - Mugello (196x) - Mugello, Circuito Stradale - San Piero a Sieve, Circuito della Fortezza
Description In 1967 a 5.6 km road circuit was obtained by using the section around San Piero a Sieve of the old Mugello circuit: northern section of the circuit (via Massarondinaia and via Roma) was part of 1966-1970 layout; southern section (via Provinciale) of 1914-1965 one. It was a very dangerous circuit, with sidewalks, plants and walls all around; roads were narrows and ruined, also because of a quarry on gravel bank of river Sieve just before via Roma. After 1967 no more races were held on this circuit.
Not to be confused with Circuito della Fortezza.
