Coppa Florio was an Italian car race started in 1900, and renamed in 1905 when Vincenzo Florio offered the initial 50 000 Lira and a cup designed by Polak of Paris. The cup was to be offered the manufacturer that wins four or more of the first seven races, the first race held in 1905. Eventually, the winner was Peugeot (1925), but the race continued under the influence of Lucien Rosengart.

The Brescia race used the « Circuito di Brescia» Brescia-Cremona-Mantova-Brescia. In 1908, the race used the «Circuito di Bologna» Bologna-Castelfranco Emilia-Sant'Agata Bolognese-San Giovanni in Persiceto-Bologna. Since 1914 most of the Coppa Florio was co-organized with the Targa Florio at the Circuito delle Madonie circuit outside Palermo, Sicilia, running four or five laps, 108 km each. Only in 1927 did it move to Saint-Brieuc to honor Peugeot's win in 1925. The winners were:
