Mille Miglia

La Corsa Più Bella del Mondo



                                                                                        

Mille Miglia, " Thousand Miles" passed through Bologna today. This is an endurance race that starts in Brescia goes to Rome and and back up to Brescia in the shape of a figure eight. The race started in 1927 in Brescia by a group of wealthy people, after two Italian racers lost the Grand Prix. 







375 cars can participate in the race, and they must be the same make as one of the original cars raced in the rally from 1927-1957.






It was a lot of fun walking the streets of Bologna on a Saturday afternoon, seeing classic car after classic car!
