On Wednesday the 13th May, from Brescia, the procession of vintage cars will cross the picturesque towns of Lake Garda, Desenzano and Sirmione, and will continue through Villafranca di Verona, Mantua, Ferrara and Ravenna to conclude the first day of competition at Cervia – Milan Marittima.
From Cesenatico, the next day the cars will go down to Urbino, Fabriano, Macerata, Fermo and Ascoli Piceno to enter the areas that still bear the signs of the 2016 earthquake, passing through Macerata, Fermo, Ascoli Piceno and Amatrice.
