Trofeo Luigi Fagioli
The historic hill climb of Gubbio, the 'Monte Carlo of the Slopes'
About Trofeo Fagioli
A legend of mountain speed
The Trofeo Luigi Fagioli is one of the most prestigious hill climbs in Italy, dedicated to Luigi Fagioli, a driver from Gubbio and a legend of motorsport, the only winner of a Formula 1 Grand Prix (France 1951) at the age of 53. The race takes place in Gubbio, in the province of Perugia, on a spectacular 4.150-meter track that climbs from the city gates to Madonna della Cima, passing through the historic Gola del Bottaccione.
Modern and historic cars in competition
The hill climb, valid for the Italian Mountain Speed Championship (CIVM), attracts drivers and cars from all over Italy, with the participation of modern cars and a large contingent of historic cars. The course, described as 'compact but selective', tests the technique and courage of the drivers through curves, hairpin bends, and fast sections, providing excitement for thousands of spectators positioned along the track.
The 'Monte Carlo of the Slopes'
Nicknamed the 'Monte Carlo of the Slopes', the Trofeo Fagioli is organized by the Comitato Eugubino Corse Automobilistiche (CECA) and is one of the most keenly felt sporting events in Umbria, managing to combine the adrenaline of racing with the beauty of the Gubbio landscape.
