Much more than just a horse race, the Il Palio is a major cultural event with deep historical roots.
The Spirit of Competition
All Sienese are affiliated with one of the contrade (racing competitors) with whom their sense of loyal allegiance runs deep and strong. Dating back to the 11th century, the Palio was fervently celebrated by competing the contrade against each other for supremacy and acclaim. The horse racing brought in its wake other contests such as flag throwing and fist fights. While local law enforcement ensures that the fights no longer happen, the spirit of competition is no less fierce.
A Wide Range of Sports Cars
Hire the Maserati GranCabrio for a true sports car that is as exciting to drive as it is highly luxurious.
