The 2025 edition has been held from Tuesday 17 to Saturday 21 June.
The format, for the third consecutive year, has been 5 days and has retraced the legendary pre-war races, running on a “figure eight” route like that of the first 12 editions of the 1000 Miglia speed race.
On Tuesday 17 June, the more than 430 cars admitted to the race have driven through Desenzano, Sirmione, Verona, Bovolone and Ferrara, before ending the day in San Lazzaro di Savena, in the metropolitan city of Bologna. On day two, the crews have tackled the Raticosa and Futa Passes. After passing through Prato and Siena, the cars have headed towards Rome before heading north again.
After the turnaround in Rome, the Red Arrow has been in Orvieto, Foiano della Chiana, Arezzo and Sansepolcro; the return to San Marino has preceded the arrival of the third leg in Cervia-Milano Marittima. On the fourth day, the most beautiful race in the world has crossed the whole of Italy from East to West: having set off from Cervia, the 1000 Miglia 2025 has touched Forlì before cutting across the Apennines to Empoli, where the ascending route has crossed the descent route taken two days earlier, towards Rome. Keeping westward, the Red Arrow has reached Pontedera and then the Tyrrhenian coast with the passage through the Italian Naval Academy in Livorno; the ascent has continued through Viareggio and the Cisa Pass to close the penultimate leg in Parma before the arrival in Brescia.
