The Italian Grand Prix is back to Mugello from 31st May to 2nd June, 2024
Ticket sales kicked off on 21st December for the 2024 Italian Grand Prix, which will be held in the usual setting among the Mugello hills from 31st May to 2nd June. The Mugello area has become home to the Italian Grand Prix with the Tuscan track first hosting the race in 1976 and becoming a permanent venue in 1994.
This Tuscan circuit is dear to many riders: for Valentino Rossi, Mugello has always been "one of the most extraordinary tracks in the world, a source of never-ending excitement." Marc Marquez has a fondness for the San Donato corner, calling it "a very challenging braking zone, considering that you get there at 350 km/h and it's a bit uphill." Mugello is also one of Francesco Bagnaia's favorite circuits: "The Italian Grand Prix is our home race, one of my favorites, and the track really suits the technical characteristics of our bike. I can't wait to come back."
THE PROGRAM
Excitement and anticipation are growing at the Mugello Circuit for the challenge between two-time world champion Francesco Bagnaia, other Ducati riders like Jorge Martin and Marc Marquez, and the rest of the grid with aspiring champions from KTM, Aprilia, Honda, and Yamaha. There will be five categories in the race: MotoGP, Moto2, Moto3, MotoE, and Red Bull Rookies Cup; starting with qualifications and a Sprint Race on Saturday, the program will continue with all the races on Sunday. There are a series of truly unique experiences planned for racing enthusiasts, such as the "Rider Fan Parade" on Sunday after the warm-up and the "Hero Walk," where fans can meet and get up close with MotoGP riders, fifteen minutes before the start of FP3.
As tradition dictates, "No sleeping at Mugello": the invitation for all enthusiasts is to immerse themselves in a weekend full of races, but also music and friendship, with concerts and international DJ sets, as well as autograph sessions with the riders. From Thursday, it will be possible to camp for free inside the vast park of the circuit, which extends over 100 hectares of meadows and woods equipped with bathrooms, refreshment stands, and barbecue areas. Entry is free for motorcycles.
