The GP della Liberazione Pink, takes place in the centre of Rome and is supported by Rome’s Department of Sports, Major Events, Tourism, and Fashion. Marta Bastianelli, a former world champion who retired last season, serves as the patron of this event adding some prestige that’s been running in some form for over 30 years.
Italians have locked out the win here since 2009 (with a couple of gaps in that time when the race wasn’t held) with names like Marta Bastianelli, Giorgia Bronzini, Noemie Cantele, Letizia Paternoster, Silvia Persico and most recently, Silvia Zanardi winning in that time frame. Reginas Schleicher and Diana Ziliute were the last 2 non-Italian winners and both riders won the GP della Liberazione PINK twice.
