The crew from Varesino, father and son Crugnola, won the twelfth and final round of the Italian Regular Championship in vintage cars.

«The race is very nice, — said Roberto Crugnola — very interesting with right times that mark trials with a good rhythm. The classification was practically decided at the end because the crews with a similar coefficient were all very close. I dedicate this victory to the president Luca Gelli, hoping that this result can be a good omen for his prompt recovery. Now it’s time for me to think about the 2022 program, since this season I’ve been able to take part in few appointments due to professional commitments that have kept me away from the race courses. As for the Coppa d’Era, I would like to applaud the organizers because it has been a very well organized event in every detail. The only discordant note was probably the late exposure of the rankings that risked affecting the good performance of the whole organizational part».

The runners-up were Sergio Sisti / Anna Gualandi onboard a 1937 Lancia Aprilla. Third in the final standings with 60.25 points behind the winners came Claudio Lastri driving a 1975 Alfa Romeo Giulia Nuova Super with his co-pilot Valter Pantani.
