Route
Final stage divided into two parts. The approach section starts from Rome-EUR and heads to the coast, reaching Ostia, before returning to the start area. Riders then enter the final circuit, to be covered 8 times, entirely within the capital. The 9.5 km circuit runs on city roads – wide, but occasionally featuring central reservations. It alternates short undulations with long straights connected by sometimes technical corners. The road surface is mainly asphalt, with some short cobbled sections (so-called sanpietrini).
Final kilometres
The final kilometres feature only slight changes of direction. The finishing straight is 350 m long on 8 m wide asphalt. Midway through the last kilometre, the road rises at a gradient of around 5%.
