Around every corner of the ancient city of Rome, there is a reason to be in awe. Impressing with the ease of thousands of years of history scattered gracefully around the city, with places to pick up decedent gelato or refreshing limoncello hidden along the way.
Ever since the Roman Empire, when chariots raced through the Circus Maximus, a need for speed has embedded itself with the Italian capital. Though the fierce competition of these races has long died down, the spirit lives on through motorsport. Continuing the city’s racing legacy, Jaguar’s latest e-vehicle – the Jaguar I-PACE – represents the next level in automobile technology. With a new infotainment system and a sophisticated interior, there’s nothing quite like it on the road today.
In partnership with Jaguar, we explored our favourite places in Rome:

3. Galleria Lorcan O’Neill
After the adrenaline of the race, Jaguar took guests to see London-born artist Tracey Emin’s Rome exhibition titled You Should Have Saved Me at Galleria Lorcan O’Neill. The unapologetically honest and raw linework featured in Emin’s paintings is reminiscent of the energy we have come to expect from Jaguar.
