The Mille Miglia (Thousand Miles) was an open-road endurance race which took place in Italy twenty-four times from 1927 to 1957.
 
As one of the most exciting events on the classic car calendar, the Mille Miglia has long served as a symbol of Italy. The race has changed over the course of time, yet the tradition, sport and style of the event remains. Today, the evolving culture of the Mille Miglia is celebrated worldwide and now, for the first time, in Hainan.
