This time the traditional race in Levane in the province of Arezzo, valid for the Memorial Ezio Alessio Mannucci-Trofeo Gruppo Calzeroni-Memorial Dr. Giuseppe Soldà, cannot be defined as semi-nocturnal. In fact, after three laps of the circuit on the roads of Valdarno for just over 60 kilometers in daylight (the start at 7 PM), the race entered the city circuit of Levane but after a few laps of the planned 35, a power blackout with lack of lighting forced the race director and jury to suspend the race after 82 kilometers covered out of the planned 130.

The winner was Tuscan Mattia Piccini, who had gained the lead of the race, finishing with an 8-second advantage over the group regulated for second place by the Valdarno native and Tuscan Under 23 champion Matteo Gialli. Third place went to Tommaso Ferri in this Valdarno event organized by Fracor International under the direction of Francesco Ghiarè. A shame only for the interrupted spectacle. As for the winner, an excellent sprinter who races in the Marche-based VPM Moretti team, a well-deserved success as Piccini in other previous races had shown his liveliness and was often among the protagonists. A touch of bitterness for local athlete Gialli, who was one of the main favorites of the race, which the Team Hopplà rider cared about particularly.
