Headed to Italy; any good motorsports museums/tours you've taken?
We'll be in central and northern Italy end of July, with a car.
Knowing that all the great factories and tracks are there, can a mere mortal actually visit any of them?

If you spend much time in Rome, get a personal guide to visit the Vatican. Well worth the money, otherwise you spend a lot of time waiting in lines.

Try the Morbidelli Museum in Pesaro.
A fascinating man and an astounding racing record form a little known maker. Look up this brand and prepared to be amazed.
