AFAIK there were three more editions, in 1958, 1959 and 1961, but it was a regularity race. On my site I have maps of 1958 and 1959 editions; I don't have any result and any more info about the 1961 edition, that should have been the last one.
After that - I think in 1970s - Mille Miglia became a local Rally (raced on the mountains near Brescia and Lake of Garda, nothing to do with traditional Mille Miglia) and year after year it become much more important and from some years is an European Championship Rally.

while searching other stuff, I've found the '59 Rallye della Mille Miglia top-3 finishers:
1) Carlo-Mario Abate / Balzarini, Ferrari 250GT LWB Berlinetta Scaglietti
2) #7, 8116 BG 13, Jean Guichet / Happel, Ferrari 250GT LWB Berlinetta Scaglietti
3) #10, GE-54178?, Jean-Pierre Schild / Pecorini, Ferrari 250GT LWB Berlinetta Scaglietti
Stunning, isn't it? 3 Ferraris as top-3 finishers in a rally... wow!!!
Carles.

Great but not stunning: it wasn't a Rally, it was a regularity race. I think this race and rallyes had completely different rules.Originally posted by jarama

By the way, somewhere I should have official rules.

They comprise a series of stages with a set time for each and competitors are penalised for arriving earlier or later than the set time. The only difference is that on some rallies there is no penalty for early arrival.

Only a little remark, searching the accuracy of the data: probably the chap called Jolly (codriver of Clarou) is Joly, who was later known as codriver of Patrick Vanson sharing the DS Citroëns.

See WOEIT No 3A
"A Russian-built Moskvitch, entered and driven by an Austrian team, crosses the finish line at Brescia, Italy, May 31, after the Mille Miglia. The Moskvitch was placed second in the 1,600cc class...".
