Mugello Circuit, Motorsport racing track in Scarperia e San Piero, Italy
Mugello Circuit is a motorsport racing track in Scarperia e San Piero that winds through the Tuscan hills and features 15 corners across roughly 5.2 kilometers. The track includes a straight section over one kilometer long and grandstands that can hold tens of thousands of spectators.
The racing track opened in the 1970s and was later acquired by a well-known Italian car manufacturer, which uses the facility for testing and development work. Over the years, the venue has been upgraded several times to meet international safety standards.
The venue takes its name from the rolling Tuscan hills that surround it, a landscape that has drawn artists and travelers for centuries. When major races take place, fans arrive from across Italy, and many wear the colors of their favorite riders or teams.
Access is typically available during the racing season, which runs from spring through autumn. Most grandstands offer a good view of different parts of the track, and there are several zones where you can watch vehicles both at high speed and through slower sections.
The elevation changes along the track make it one of the most physically demanding venues for drivers, who must constantly shift between acceleration and braking. Many racers describe the combination of fast sections and tight corners as one of the most challenging in international motorsport.
