LEG 3 – THURSDAY 13RD JUNE
Lucca, Pontedera, Rosignano Marittimo, Bibbona, Castagneto Carducci, Castiglione della Pescaia, Marta, Ronciglione e Roma.
The third leg will see the descent towards the Capital City: the race will turn towards the hinterland, passing through Lucca and then through Pontedera, Rosignano Castiglioncello, Bibbona, Castagneto Carducci, until the lunch break in Castiglione della Pescaia. In the afternoon, the route enters Lazio, passing through Marta, Ronciglione and ending in Roma in Via Veneto.
Pontedera
1000 Miglia between technology and history
1000 Miglia will cross the city where a large part of the Genoese aeronautical construction industry was transferred in 1924. In the gateway to the Valdera, there is also the Institute of Biorobotics, a center of excellence in robotics and information technology located between the provinces of Lucca and Pisa, home to numerous historical sites.
Castiglione della Pescaia
An undiscovered jewel that offers an unbelievable combination of sea, nature and history
Situated on a promontory of the Maremma coast, between the blue of the sea and the green of the hills, lies Castiglione della Pescaia, an ancient fishing village that is now an internationally renowned tourist resort and that several times has received the Blu FEE Flag and the 5 Vele Legambiente award for the quality of its sea, the cleanliness of its beaches, its natural beauty and environmental care.
Castiglione della Pescaia is an undiscovered jewel that offers an unbelievable combination of sea, nature and history, making it an ideal destination for anyone wishing to immerse themselves in a unique and fascinating environment.
Marta
The Red Arrow in the upper Tuscia
Marta is a characteristic fishing village in Tuscia, in upper Lazio, overlooking the southern shores of Europe’s largest lake of volcanic origin, Lake Bolsena, some 20 km from the provincial capital Viterbo.
The town is situated on the slopes of Monte Marta where the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Monte rises, from which to gaze over the rooftops of the hamlet, plunging into the blue waters of the lake, protected by the embrace of the Volsini mountains. Nestled between the shores of the lake and cultivated fields, it offers the visitor an environment of great charm and poetry. The caravan of the 1000 Miglia 2022 passed through the medieval village on 17 June 2022, during the third leg. The numerous small squares join the narrow streets and stairways that lead from the Octagonal or Clock Tower to the shores of the lake, in the characteristic Borgo dei Pescatori.
Ronciglione
The Red Arrow in the town of Carnival
It is difficult to contain Ronciglione in a sentence that characterises it completely. Because Ronciglione – a picturesque village in southern Tuscia in the province of Viterbo, just a few kilometres from the shores of Lake Vico – is multifaceted. It is the town of Carnival, one of the ten most beautiful in Italy, but also the town of the Corse a Vuoto, the historic race of the horses without jockeys that run free along the Renaissance street in a real town hippodrome, and also the home of Marco Mengoni, whose attachment to his roots is well known. In fact, it is not so strange for the people of Ronciglione to wander around the old town centre or take a walk by Lake Vico and meet Marco, who for everyone remains the good guy with the extraordinary voice with whom they can have a chat. However, Ronciglione, among other things, is also the Borgo dei Borghi 2023, elected the most beautiful village in Italy by the RAI programme. This is thanks to its undeniable historical, artistic and scenic beauty, but also to the richness of its traditions and events. These include the 1000 Miglia. In fact, Ronciglione has been an affectionate stopover for the famous Red Arrow for almost thirty years, along the route that this year will lead to the capital. A now indestructible association, to which the traditional Passage Control in Piazza Vittorio Emanuele and the passage of the cars in the splendid setting of the Lake Vico Nature Reserve provide the backdrop.
Roma
The Timeless Race in the Eternal City
There cannot be the most beautiful Race in the world without the most beautiful City in the world. In the almost one hundred years of history of the 1000 Miglia, this combination has only suffered one interruption in one edition of the speed race, that of 1940, for reasons of force majeure due to the war.

The #1000Miglia2024 finished on the Viale Venezia platform 🔚🥲
Here are the names of the winners 🏆:
🥇 Andrea Vesco and Fabio Salvinelli in a Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Ss Spider Z from 1929
🥈 Gianmmario Fontanella and Anna Maria Covelli in a Lancia Lambda Casaro VII Serie from 1927
🥉 Alberto Aliverti and Stefano Valente in a Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Ss Spider Z from 1929
The winners were awarded the Coppa 1000 Miglia 2024, a work of art created by Dutch artist Sabine Marcelis, a perfect metaphor for a Team victory:
the sculpture, in fact, is composed of two parts that, when joined together, make up a whole. Two complementary pieces, designed to be autonomous and intended for the driver and co-driver, which only through their union find completeness 💫

Sulla pedana di Viale Venezia si è conclusa la #1000Miglia2024 🔚🥲
Ecco i nomi dei vincitori🏆:
🥇Andrea Vesco e Fabio Salvinelli a bordo di una Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Ss Spider Z del 1929
🥈 Gianmmario Fontanella e Anna Maria Covelli a bordo di una Lancia Lambda Casaro VII Serie del 1927
🥉 Alberto Aliverti e Stefano Valente a bordo di una Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 Ss Spider Z del 1929
I vincitori si sono aggiudicati la Coppa 1000 Miglia 2024, un’opera d’arte realizzata dall’artista olandese Sabine Marcelis, metafora perfetta della vittoria in Team:
la scultura, infatti, è composta da due parti che, unite, la compongono nella sua interezza. Due pezzi complementari, pensati per essere autonomi e destinati a pilota e copilota, che solo con la loro unione trovano completezza💫
