Description Corners were described as "all very wide and banked". The roads have an excellent surface, probably dirt because they were slightly damaged by the rain before the inaugural day of May 2nd 1926.
Grandstands for the public are located 250 m - 273 yd from the Dazio di Vale Stupinigi. There is an excellent view of the Strada del Portone, the corner with Viale Stupinigi and a large part of the latter.
