FLORENCE, ITALY – The Italian MotoGP Gran Premio d’Italia, scheduled from May 28 to 30, 2021, will be held without the presence of spectators in the stands. Therefore, the provisions on sporting events contained in the Law Decree 52/2021 currently in force will be observed in their entirety. The event will therefore take place behind closed doors, according to the health protocols established by Dorna and the International Motorcycling Federation.
The first time that Mugello hosted a Grand Prix event was in the year 1976, and the layout of the stunning Tuscan circuit, which undulates naturally within a beautiful tree lined valley, has remained practically the same ever since. The track was purchased by Ferrari in 1988 and renovated to their high standards shortly after – with excellent facilities and world class safety features. It became a permanent MotoGP venue from 1991 onwards.
Italy’s love affair with bike racing is long and enduring. Manufacturers such as Mondial, Moto Guzzi, Gilera, MV Agusta, Morbidelli, Garelli, Cagiva and now Aprilia and Ducati all playing a role, in addition to great riders such as Giacomo Agostini and Valentino Rossi.
