Ninety years since Alfa Romeo’s first victory in the Mille Miglia, the "most beautiful race in the world"—as Enzo Ferrari loved to call it—will include a stage at the Alfa Romeo Historical Museum. On Saturday 19 May, the competing cars will participate in time trials on the track of the facility in Arese.

On 1 April 1928, Giuseppe Campari and Giulio Ramponi won the second edition of the Mille Miglia on board a 6C 1500 Super Sport, thus claiming the first of 11 victories by Alfa Romeo in the illustrious competition: a record that can never be beaten.

In the retrospective edition of the Mille Miglia, 90 years after that victory, the Alfa brand will be celebrated with a series of commemorative initiatives. The biggest of these is scheduled for Saturday 19 May, when the race will stop by at the Alfa Romeo Historical Museum, known as “La macchina del tempo” (The Time Machine). On the indoor track of the facility in Arese, over 400 competing cars will complete a number of time trials. 

It is an ideal way to celebrate the legend of Alfa Romeo and the inseparable link between the brand and an iconic competition like the Mille Miglia. Four prestigious models from the Arese Museum will also be on show: the Alfa Romeo 6C 1500 Super Sport, the Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Gran Sport, the Alfa Romeo 1900 Sport Spider and the Alfa Romeo Super Sprint. 

Drivers Marcus Ericsson and Charles Leclerc from the Alfa Romeo Sauber F1 Team currently taking part in the 2018 Formula 1 championship will also be present to mark the occasion. Their participation is a tangible sign of how indelibly the racing world is engraved in the Alfa Romeo DNA.
