Mille Miglia
A road race first held in 1927, and traditionally the cars set off at one
minute intervals from the centre of Brescia, to the centre of Rome, and then
back. The course changed over the
years, and following a tragic accident in 1957, the race was stopped. Smaller
versions around Brescia continued to be staged, and nostalgic races have been
held since 1982.
