We are in the immediate post-war period: between the poverty and the ruins left from the conflict the motors returns to roar. Italy, still kneeling, is crossed by the new Mille Miglia and people comes to the roads in order to see to pass the champions and their cars.
Between they the most waited, the most applauded, is still the indomitable Tazio Nuvolari that, together with Carena, runs with a little Cisitalia 1100 type 202 SS "Mille Miglia". A new impossible enterprise seems to come true: he precedes the Alfa Romeo 8 cylinders 2900 of Biondetti and leads the race. Only the rain stop the mantuan in the final part of the contest and arrives second absolute, first of his category.
In the photo it is interesting to see the public who incite the mantuan. It's very numerous if we considered that we are in a country zone and that the drama of the war as soon as finished imposed other occupations.
