by admin

Four days of Italian spirit and passion for engines. Crossing splendid landscapes of central Italy and experiencing moments of intense passion for engines and historic cars. A traveling museum that, even for this edition, had staggering numbers. …

The path and the victory of Vesco-Salvinelli

From Brescia to Brescia, from Wednesday to Saturday: a circle has closed and the days have flown by. Like every time something memorable happens, time runs very fast. And the circle that has closed truly represents perfection, completeness: it is the emblem of continuity.

This edition was won by the crew composed of Andrea Vesco and Fabio Salvinelli, competing with the number 43, who, after almost 1800 km through some of the most beautiful cities in Italy, won the competition driving the Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Super Sport from 1929.

The link between the Mille Miglia and Alfa Romeo

The almost century-old relationship between Alfa Romeo and the 1000 Miglia is undoubted. The brand holds the record for victories in the competition, eleven between 1927 and 1957, and in this edition Alfa Romeo was again the most represented car manufacturer, with 50 cars competing, and above all the winning company. In fact, the 1929 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Super Sport of the Villa Trasqua team, driven by the duo Vesco-Salvinelli, climbed the top step of the podium.

In addition, all the historic Alfa Romeos entered by the Heritage department, which completed the race, received applause. The four jewels of the historical collection were led by exceptional crews, including Stellantis Chairman John Elkann with his wife Lavinia Borromeo aboard the 1900 Super Sprint. Stronger than some technical drawbacks the multi-titled Giovanni Moceri and Daniele Bonetti on the Alfa Romeo 6C 1500 Super Sport, and the enthusiastic Alberto Vassallo and Giovanni Bianco of the digital Car & Vintage platform on the very rare 2000 Sportiva. Finally, the Guest Car 1900 Sport Spider with Roberto Giolito, Head of Heritage, and the TV presenter Camila Raznovich.
