THE FOURTH LEG OF THE 1000 MIGLIA 2023 IS UNDERWAY: VESCO AND SALVINELLI ARE LEADING THE CLASSIFICATION

At 8 a.m. this morning, the fourth leg of the 1000 Miglia 2023 started from Parma. Some 600 kilometres to the final finish line, we begin to feel the incandescent atmosphere of the decisive moments in the race for victory.

Besides the race, however, the 1000 Miglia also means experiencing the most beautiful country in the world, both in the beauty of the landscapes and city centres and in meeting people. Yesterday the welcoming from Parma was extremely warm, as it had been along the Siena hills a few hours earlier, with hundreds of jubilant people at the side of the road and “W la 1000 Miglia” banners In addition hanging here and there.

The day began with a block of 10 concatenated Time Trials inside the San Damiano Military Airport valid for the “One Hundred Years of the Italian Air Force” Trophy, followed by a Passage Control. The race will then pass through the territories of Oltrepò Pavese and Valle Versa, before arriving in Pavia for the Time Control along the Strada Nuova as far as Ponte Coperto and then heading west.

Then there will be the eagerly awaited transit through Piedmont, an absolute new feature in the history of the re-enactment with only two precedents in the speed race, 1947 and 1948. Alessandria will be the first municipality to welcome the historic convoy and will host the crews for the race lunch, served among the iconic porticos of Piazza Garibaldi that recall the irresistible charm of the Belle Epoque.
