The Targa Florio, Sicily, Italy
This is the story of the oldest, most beautiful car race that has ever existed, on one of the world’s most dangerous courses. So much so, that 45 years ago in 1977, it had to be stopped.
The infamous Targa Florio, nestled in the hills outside of Palermo, Sicily, snakes its way around 72km of beautiful Italian countryside.
The likes of Stirling Moss, Juan Manuel Fangio, Graham Hill and even Enzo Ferrari raced here. Ferrari, Bugatti, Bentley, Alfa Romeo, Porsche among others competed on this famous course. It was the world's greatest race event in its day and even now, decades on from the last official race, you can still follow in the tracks of these great racers and ride or drive the entire course.
