1000 Miglia 2025: Alfa Romeo scores yet another win

This afternoon, near the Rebuffone Gardens on Viale Venezia in Brescia—the traditional and historic point of departure and arrival of the 1000 Miglia— the 1929 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Super Sport, driven by Vesco-Salvinelli, won the 43 edition of the “1000 Miglia” historical re-enactment. Finishing in second place was the Alfa Romeo 6C 1500 SS, driven by the Argentinian team of Erejomovich – Llanos, while third place went to the Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 GS Spider Zagato driven by the duo of Tonconogy – Ruffini: an extraordinary podium sweep by the Biscione that further solidified the brand’s indelible bond to this timeless race. Additionally, the three official Alfa Romeo, Fiat, and Maserati vehicles—participating under the auspices of Stellantis Heritage—completed the challenging regularity race reserved for models that either competed in the original speed race or were produced during the same period (1927-1957).

The public was especially captivated by the vehicle preferred by gentlemen drivers in the 1950s: the 1956 Alfa Romeo 1900 Super Sprint. Driven by the Luna Rossa team, this model comes directly from the Alfa Romeo Museum in Arese. The same warmth was extended to the 1955 Fiat 600, a symbol of the 1960s’ Italian economic miracle and currently celebrating its 70 anniversary. Usually housed in the Centro Storico Fiat in Turin, its participation also paid tribute to the many Fiat 600s that competed in the historic race. Furthermore, the crowd couldn’t take its eyes off the iconic Maserati A6 GCS/53. Owned by a private collector, it is in all likelihood the Maserati with the highest number of appearances in the 1000 Miglia historic speed race.

On June 17, the crowd cheered as the caravan departed Brescia, heading toward Lake Garda, then continuing on to Verona and Ferrara before arriving in San Lazzaro di Savena. The following day featured the challenging Raticosa and Futa Passes as the caravan cut across Tuscany, reaching Rome just in time for a magical sunset arrival. On Thursday, the crews headed back north, passing through Orvieto, Arezzo, and San Marino before reaching the Adriatic coast at Cervia-Milano Marittima. Friday was spent driving along the Tyrrhenian Sea, passing through Livorno and the legendary Cisa Pass on the way to Parma. The final leg on Saturday led the drivers through Cremona and several villages in the Lower Po Valley, culminating in the grand finale in Brescia, where it all got started way back in 1927. This year’s edition of this extraordinary “traveling museum” once again thrilled the packed crowds lining the nearly 1,900-km itinerary, who also had the chance to admire the style and performance of some of the Group’s latest releases—featured in the event as Support Cars.

The legendary route hosted the Alfa Romeo Junior, Tonale, Giulia Quadrifoglio Super Sport (the special limited-edition series dedicated to the brand’s 1 victory at the 1000 Miglia) and, for the first time before the general public, the captivating New 33 Stradale. They were joined by the Fiat 600 Hybrid and the high-octane Abarth 600e, which pays tribute to the legendary Fiat 600—one of Dante Giacosa’s most celebrated creations—in a year that commemorates the 120 anniversary of the designer’s birth. Moreover, the Maserati GranCabrio 490, GranTurismo Trofeo, and Grecale Trofeo each featured a special livery inspired by both a classic model that played a significant role in the event’s history and a unique version of the Trident logo over the years. Lastly, four Stellantis employees from different countries covered the 1000 Miglia on board the Fiat 600 Hybrid and Alfa Romeo Junior Q4, sharing their experience online via dedicated social media content.
