The scrutineering and preparation days leading up to the 1000 Miglia 2026 offer participants a remarkable opportunity to extend their passion well beyond race week. In the main scrutineering pavilion, the Roarington stand dedicated to the "1000 Miglia Digital Experience" presents competitors with a range of compelling possibilities.
In its role as official Digital Partner of 1000 Miglia, Roarington brings to the heart of the event a new way of experiencing the world's most beautiful race, drawing together tradition and innovation, passion and technology, the physical and the digital.
The Roarington Digital Experience is immediately recognisable by the presence of a defining protagonist of the historic 1000 Miglia, the Porsche 550 Spyder, positioned alongside a Roarington simulator made available to competitors for pre-race practice. The training carries real weight: Roarington's simulators are developed to recreate not only speed and driving pleasure, but the very essence of regularity that makes the 1000 Miglia singular. Unlike conventional racing simulators, the Roarington Digital Experience is the only platform to integrate regularity trials — drawn directly from the 1000 Miglia's original format — alongside competitive driving. This allows participants to train and remain connected to the event throughout the year.
There is more: for this year's edition, Roarington also presents the 1000 Miglia 2026 Edition Simulator, a collector-grade simulator designed by Zagato or Pininfarina — at the choice of whoever places the order — crafted by hand in Italy and produced in just nine numbered examples worldwide. Personalised with race number, crew names and national flag, it can also be commissioned in the colour of the owner's actual car, with interior details to match. In effect, a Digital Twin of one's own car, available to use the whole year through. As an alternative, Roarington also offers special series dedicated to some of the most iconic automobiles in motorsport history — among them the 417 Edition, developed in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz. This is the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing that, carrying the number 417, finished first in the GT Category at the 1955 1000 Miglia. These genuinely singular simulators are equipped with a professional motion platform, an immersive audio system, and a Certificate of Authenticity co-signed by 1000 Miglia and Roarington.
A further opportunity is extended, in Brescia, to 2026 1000 Miglia competitors: a complete scan of their car during official scrutineering. The Digital Twin of each entry is produced through ultra-high-resolution three-dimensional scanning, becoming a certified digital asset integrated into the official 1000 Miglia Digital Experience ecosystem.
All of this, and considerably more, stands as the clearest expression of how a great motoring classic such as 1000 Miglia can enrich its magnificent life with technologies conceived to unite history with the full depth of what the most sophisticated digital possibilities can offer. It is with pride and commitment that Roarington accompanies 1000 Miglia on this compelling journey.
