Mileage Route "Thousand Miles"
From May 17 to May 20 in Italy there will be a unique auto race in old cars - "Thousands of Miles" (in Italian "Millet Milla", website) on the route Brescia - Rome - Brescia.

To participate in the run allowed cars produced from 1927 to 1957, and nly those models that have participated at least once in took place in the early years of motoring runs. However, as an exception, some "participants", dating back to 1927, are allowed to travel to the distance.

For the first time, the Mille Miglia race was held at the end of 1926 at the initiative of four young and avid motorists and auto racing lovers, Count Aimo Maggi di Gradella, his friend Count Franco Mazzotti, former rider Renzo Castagneto and journalist Giovanni Canestrini. They decided to organize this run, which later became legendary, in response to the fact that they removed the Italian Grand Prix racing championship from their home town of Brescia.

It was decided to set the route from Brescia to Rome and back, and its total length was about 1, 600 km, which is quite consistent with almost a thousand miles, from where the famous name came. The first run was so successful that it was decided to continue it in subsequent years. Since then, the route has not changed, and thousands of spectators visit this route every year
