The race:
The Giro del Veneto is an important 1-day race held in the north-eastern Italian region of Veneto, the area around Venice. Recently the course has run from Padova to Thiene but in 2008 the finish was returned to its traditional place in Padova. The Eugenian hills (Colli Eugenei) are the principal challenge of the race.
Like the Tours de France and the Giri d'Italia of the era, the first 2 editions of the Giro del Veneto calculated the placings on points.
In 1970 and 1985 the Giro del Veneto was also used to determine the Italian road champion.
The UCI classified it an "HC" race in 2005. In 20211 it was reclassified as a 1.1 race.
