Die Targa Florio war ein Langstreckenrennen auf öffentlichen Bergstraßen in Sizilien. Geschaffen wurde es vom Unternehmer Vincenzo Florio.
Die Targa Florio (italienisch für Schild, Plakette) wurde von 1906 bis 1977 meistens im Mai als wichtige internationale Veranstaltung teilweise mit WM-Status (Sportwagen-Weltmeisterschaft) durchgeführt. Es ist somit noch älter als das Indianapolis 500. Seit 1978 wird sie als Rallye fortgeführt.
Als Targa Florio Rally wird diese traditionsreiche Veranstaltung in der Saison 2012 als Lauf der Rallye-Weltmeisterschaft ausgetragen.
I am a native of Campo Felice and as a young boy I watched this race from our family home and terrace which began my obsession with race cars . I was actually there during this race I 5 and remember it all .

Io c'ero ed avevo diciotto anni. Ultima Targa Florio e ricordi vivi ancora oggi. Non dimenticherò mai la Porsche 911 RSR che vinse ed il suo pilota Müller. Che tempi!
What's hard to imagine is that these races were conducted on open, active roadways with the locals using them at the same time as the race cars were zooming around---how fabulous that people had no issue with that back then. Today, we think we're soooo tolerant of this and that but there is NO WAY such activity would be conducted today. Someone, somewhere....would lodge a complaint and that would be the end of the race. Great that we live in today's "such tolerant world," isn't it? Good Laud.....
The Mille Miglia was conducted on open roads, because obviously the Italian authorities couldn't close a 1,000 mile course. The Targa Florio, however, the roads that were utilized the 45 mile course were open to the general public for practice days- but for the day of the actual race itself, those same roads the course utilized were closed to the general public just for that one day. But yes, those were crazy times.
The roads weren't closed during the first few days of practice but closed for qualifying and the race. Different times.
This is priceless footage
Incroyable même si cela semble être hier.
Comme ces 33 sont magnifiques
I just drove the entire route on 18 July 2013. Let me say that the road is in no condition for a sports car race today. It places it is still a beautiful winding drive and the scenery, of course, is second to none. A sports car, however, would have its suspension destroyed on those same roads today.
Io sono di Palermo e di origini Cerdesi. è fantastico che la Targa Florio sia così famosa anche in altri paesi... :D
Très beau documentaire, merci bien.
very nice video, love it! To sad that such open road races don't exist any more.
rjg917- So were we and watched from Campofelice sharing wine and panini with the locals. Still have the lap chart we kept with times written in the centre pages of Il Giornale di Sicilia. Where did you watch from? Over forty five years of spectating this was the best event I've ever been to. Even learnt 'Due biglietti andata e ritorno a Campofelice, per favore' as we were staying in Cefalu and used the train. Ferrari were based at the Hotel Artu there along with many smaller teams. Absolute magic.
Great memories
