The Italian track, which will host its first F1
Grand Prix this year since 2006, was selected ahead of Planche
des Belles Filles climb in the eastern Vosges mountains of
France.
Aigle-Martigny in Switzerland was originally to host the Sept
20-27 event but organisers last month decided that the COVID-19
pandemic made it impossible given the country's restrictions on
public gatherings and quarantine requirements.
The UCI has shortened the programme down to just the elite men's
and women's individual TT and road races starting on Sept. 24.
Races will start and finish at the famous Imola circuit near
Bologna.
