About the Rally
The progression of this asphalt event from Max Rendina’s Motorsport Italia organisation is impressive. First run in 2013, Rally di Roma Capitale made its ERC debut in 2017 as Italy returned to the European championship for the first time in four years when Rallye Sanremo was on the calendar. It proved a big hit and continues to flourish.
From the Fiuggi crews tackle challenging stages around the thermal spa town southeast of Rome, while a stage in the Terme di Caracalla in central Rome provided another exciting spectacle in 2021. The event also counts for Campionato Italiano Rally Assoluto points.
