1000 Miglia 2025: Morning Between the Futa and Raticosa Hairpin Bends
BRESCIA, Italy, June 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The second leg of the 1000 Miglia 2025 left in the early morning today from Bologna. The weather continued to assist the crews, who reached the two historic 1000 Miglia passes, the Futa and the Raticosa, in view of sun-kissed Apennine panoramas. Along the stretch connecting the two passes, the first Average Trial of this edition was also held.
'The roar of the engines at the start and the smell of paraffin for me are synonymous only with the 1000 Miglia – Joe Bastianich's statement while waiting for the Time Control at the start of the leg in Bologna – today we will be in Siena, in the Chianti region, and in Rome, the Caput Mundi city. It will be an adventure, we are doing very well, and we are happy that the weather is assisting us.'
The classification updated after Time Trial 32 sees Erejemovic-Llanos in the lead in a 1929 Alfa Romeo 6C 1500 Ss, who, with today's first sports trials, have overtaken the defending champions Andrea Vesco and Fabio Salvinelli, who had ended yesterday's leg in first position. Still in third position is the Belometti-Ricca crew in a 1929 Lancia Lambda Spider Tipo 221. Hotz-Mozzi remain in the lead of the Ferrari Tribute with an F8 Spider, and so do Magni-Giavardi in a Polestar 4 for the 1000 Miglia Green.
Around 9.15 am, the convoy reached Prato: after the Time Control on the banks of the Bisenzio River, the cars made their way through the heart of the Tuscan town, passing through Piazza Duomo, Piazza San Francesco and Piazza Santa Maria delle Carceri, greeting the Prato public with a Passage Control in front of the Emperor's Castle.
It was then the turn of the Time Trials in the Linari area, after which it was the Val d'Elsa that accompanied the convoy to the arrival in Piazza del Campo in Siena, for the iconic glimpse of the liveries parked on the tricolour synthetic in the famous square of the Palio delle Contrade.

47th annual Legion Nationals get underway in Calgary!
CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Over one thousand athletes from across Canada have descended upon Calgary for this year's edition of the Legion National Youth Track and Field Championships. The Games are now officially underway at Foothills Athletic Park. Competition in over 80 events ranging from running relays to long jumps, will see athletes come together for some friendly yet serious rivalry. This year's Games are once again hosted by The City of Calgary and the Calgary Track Council and run from August 8-10. The Legion Nationals are Canada's only track and field competition for the under-16 and under-18 categories. 'This is such a unique opportunity,' says Trevor Jenvenne, Legion Sports Committee Chair and Dominion Vice President. 'I am proud of these athletes who have the chance to participate in a high-level track and field competition, and I'm so proud to be a part of that,' he says. The event officially kicked off Thursday evening at the Opening Ceremony which included the Parade of Athletes and family cheering on competitors, and a special white-hatting ceremony to welcome the Legion's Dominion President, Berkley Lawrence who also fired the starting pistol. This year's championships commemorate the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Netherlands. The Legion recognizes these CAF members in both thought and through the design of this year's winning medals. 'It is important to us to highlight a remembrance theme as part of the Games each year,' says Lawrence. 'We ask athletes to take a moment to think of these members, and to recognize the importance of their service in leading to our freedoms, such as competing in these championships.' Back this year is Invictus medalist, competitive rower and cyclist, and para athlete Michael Trauner for a third year as Games Ambassador. Trauner supports and encourages the athletes while sharing parts of his personal story as an Afghanistan Veteran. This year he's highlighting the importance of support networks. 'Much like the military, athletes are chosen to represent their provinces and countries domestically and internationally,' he explains. 'I'm hoping to pass on the message to our young aspiring athletes that even though they have pushed themselves to the absolute limits, they are not alone in their journey. Many have come together to support them including your parents, siblings, family and friends. It takes an individual to train hard and compete, but it takes a community of support to bring home a win,' he says. This is the 47th year for the event organized by the Legion. The competition grew from Legionnaires' support and promotion of youth sports as a healthy activity to help children whose fathers or mothers were serving abroad or had served in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). The Legion later developed local, provincial, and national youth athletic programs, which now culminate in the games. 'We are grateful to the Local Organizing Committee and all volunteers for what they've done to make this an incredible experience for all our athletes,' says Jenvenne, Legion Sports Committee Chair. The Legion's Dominion Command sponsors hundreds of athletes each year, with the support of branches and provincial or territorial commands from across the country. Several hundred other youth join as open athletes. Whether it be winning medals, honing their athletic skills, practicing leadership, or making friends and connections, all come away with something new. Over the years, Legion athletes have gone on to compete at the international level including as part of the Commonwealth, Pan Am and even the Olympic games. Selected Canadian cities host the Legion Nationals for two years in a row, and Regina will host in 2026 and 2027. The Legion is grateful to all its generous sponsors including key supporters PIB Inc., The Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada, the Calgary Track Council, The City of Calgary, the Legion's Alberta Northwest Territories Command, the Brawn Family Foundation, Calgary Spring Water, Tourism Calgary and Athletics Canada. The organization also thanks Cochrane Toyota for providing two Games shuttles for the second year in a row. Legion Nationals results will be available throughout the competition as described further below.
