The Coppa Italia-Campionato Italiano is a season-long classification based on all Italian races ranked .1 and .HC, and was conceived by the Italian Cycling Federation (FCI) in 2007. The classification is based on a team’s three best-placed riders in each of the qualifying races, with points earned going to an accumulated total.
