The Giulia Juliet Clover Supersport Edition was launched to commemorate Alfa ·'s first victory at the Mille Miglia in 1928 and pay homage to the brand's sporting history. The victory in 1928 was achieved by the 6C 1500 Super Sport driven by Giuseppe Campari and Giulio Ramponi, hence the same nomenclature used to the Giulia Clover Super Sport.
