To relive the thrilling historical reenactment of the Freccia Rossa, taking place from June 13th to 17th, here’s a series of photo and video content from the race available to the public which is sure to bring joy to race enthusiasts throughout the world.420 classic cars, including 48 Alfa Romeo models, took part in the famous tour de force and competed on the traditional Brescia-Roma-Brescia route. This year the format moved from four to five days and the usual 1,6000 km increased to over 2,000, making it the longest edition in the history of the “most beautiful race in the world”, as the legendary Enzo Ferrari described it.With unforgettable sunsets, glimpses onto extraordinarily beautiful architecture, pouring rain, and the scorching sun, nothing was missing at this adventure rooted in tradition which was won by an Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 SS of the Villa Trasqua team driven by Andrea Vesco and Fabio Salvinelli.Another three splendid models of the Heritage collection, which are usually exhibited at the Alfa Romeo Museum in Arese, also made it to the finish line: the 1900 Sport Spider and the 2000 Sportiva, both from 1954, and the 1900 Super Sprint from 1956.
From Brescia to Rome and back again, from Wednesday to Saturday: a loop has been completed and the days have flown by. Just like with anything truly memorable, time has sped past. The now-completed loop represents perfection and attainment, as the emblem of continuity. That same continuity runs through the nearly 100-year relationship between Alfa Romeo and the 1000 Miglia: the brand holds the record for wins in the competition, 11 of which were taken from 1927 to 1957. At this edition, Alfa Romeo was once again the best represented automaker, with 50 cars in the running. Most of all, it took victory, with the Villa Trasqua team's 1929 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Super Sport atop the podium, driven by the duo of Vesco and Salvinelli.
2019 1000 Miglia - this year’s edition will be remembered as having further consolidated the historic bond between Alfa Romeo and the “Freccia Rossa” or Red Arrow Race: the highest podium step in Brescia was occupied by the Alfa Romeo 6C 1500 SS from 1928, driven by Giovanni Moceri and Daniele Bonetti, while the Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 SS Zagato driven by the Vesco-Guerini duo came a valiant second. Moceri is the current Italian Champion of Grandi Eventi ACI Sport, and in recent years has won all the major Italian historical regularity competitions: the Mille Miglia, the Targa Florio, the Nuvolari Gran Premio and the Coppa d’Oro delle Dolomite. The car he drove in this year’s competition, with bodywork by Farina, is part of the official FCA Heritage collection, normally on display in the Alfa Romeo Museum in Arese… the same car that won the re-enactment event in 2005, 2007 and 2008. Alfa Romeo was also awarded the Sponsor Team Trophy, thanks to Moceri’s win and the fifth place of the 6C 1750 SS Young driven by Cavalli and Gamberini.
