The 1935 Mille Miglia Race

Results: 1935 Mille Miglia Results / Dates: April 14-15, 1935 / Winner: Pintacuda – Della Stufa / Winning Speed: 71.72 mph / Starters: 86 / Finishers: 47

This year saw the entry of thinly disguised Grand Prix cars with two-seater coachwork barely able to fit a co-driver. Varzi in a dispute with Ferrari over his co-drivers left the team for Maserati who prepared a special six supercharged cylinder car that was capable of speeds in excess of 150 mph and sounded according to witnesses as no less than the wrath of God. Nuvolari upon seeing what his nemesis would be racing skipped that years race to the disappointment of his many legions of fans. Still 86 cars would leave the start that morning of which only 47 would see the next day in Brescia.
