After 5 gruelling days, 1900 kilometres and over 400 participating crews, on Saturday the forty-third re-enactment of the 1000 Miglia ended in Brescia. This year saw the return of a “figure of eight” route as seen epic pre-war editions, symbolically uniting not only the North and South, but also the East and West from the Adriatic Sea to the Tyrrhenian coast.
The champions once again were Andrea Vesco and Fabio Salvinelli who, driving their faithful Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 SS, once more came out on top despite the fact that Daniel Andres Erejomovich and Gustavo Llanos did not let them have it easy with their 1929 6C 1500 SS – even managing to briefly hold first place at the end of the fourth day of racing. Third were Tonconogy & Ruffini in a 1931 6C 1750 GS, completing another clean sweep of the podium by the seemingly unbeatable 6C Alfa Romeo.
