The race was created in 1951 under the name 'Campeonato Vasco Navarro de Montana'. It was also called the GP Navarra amongst other obvious choices; but after the feats of Spanish legend Miguel Indurain, the event turned into the GP Miguel Indurain in 1999 with Stefano Gazelli winning that edition, already with some big names on the start list.
Some of Spain's very best in the modern times have won on these roads, such as Joaquím Rodríguez, Alejandro Valverde, Samuel Sánchez, Daniel Moreno and Ion Izagirre. Inbetween, Simon Yates and Brandon McNulty also left their mark on the race as very strong figures; assembling this as a very prestigious international race, which also serves as preparation for Itzulia Basque Country nowadays. In 2025 it was Thibau Nys who took the victory with an explosive late attack.

The race was first held back in 1924 where Francis Pélissier took the first win. In 1935 Gino Bartali won an isolated edition and then for over 30 years the Itzulia was absent from the calendar. It wasn't until 1969 where there was a rebirth, and one with big shockwaves as none other than Jacques Anquetil won this edition.
Over the years many legends such as Luis Ocaña, Sean Kelly, Stephen Roche, Tony Rominger, Alex Zulle and Laurent Jalabert have all won the Basque race. The amount of Spanish wins in this century hasn't dminished even in the previous years, with the following being victorious: Aitor Osa, Iban Mayo, José Ángel Gómez Marchante, Juan José Cobo, Alberto Contador (four times), Sámuel Sanchez, Joaquím Rodríguez, Alejandro Valverde, Ion Izagirre and most recently in 2024 Juan Ayuso.
We've also had Nairo Quintana take a breakthrough win in 2013 early in his career, Primoz Roglic (2018 and 2021), Daniel Martínez, in 2023 Jonas Vingegaard and in 2025 João Almeida who dominated the race throughout its mountain stages.
