Mugello
Owned by Ferrari and set into the Tuscan hills north of Florence, Mugello is one of the fastest and most physically demanding circuits on the calendar — long straights, sweeping high-speed corners and real elevation change, with a permanent home MotoGP round since 1994. The circuit is also a popular test venue outside race weekend, thanks to Ferrari's ownership and a corner mix representative of much of the rest of the calendar.

What a Mugello weekend actually costs
Seats we could actually find on sale at Mugello ran from €24 up to €160 (general admission through to the priciest grandstand, not counting hospitality or Paddock Club) — checked 3 Aug 2026. Ticket prices move constantly and this is not every seat at the circuit, so treat it as a rough budget, not a quote. A typical return flight from a mid-priced European hub, booked around two months out, runs about €290 a person; add roughly €270 a person for three nights in a mid-range hotel over the race weekend. These are grounded, dated estimates, not live quotes.

Getting there
Fly into Florence, then it's a shuttle bus or drive of around 40 minutes north into the hills. Most fans base themselves in Florence and travel out for the weekend rather than staying near the circuit itself. Most of the crowd is Ferrari red on race day; Mugello is effectively a home round for the marque that owns it, even though the cars racing are motorcycles.
Where to sit
The main straight grandstands see the fastest speeds on the calendar into Turn 1 (San Donato). The Arrabbiata corners and the final Bucine corner, leading back onto the straight, are the circuit's classic overtaking and viewing spots. Further round the lap, the elevated Poggio Secco stand looks down across Turns 2 to 7 in one sweep, and Correntaio sits right on Turn 11's braking zone. Materassi covers the flowing early-lap section while Biondetti covers the closing sequence before Bucine — despite similar names, the two are not adjacent. A general-admission hillside opens up behind Turn 15 for fans who would rather stand than sit. The circuit's elevation change is also felt by spectators, with several grandstands built into the natural slope of the hillside rather than on flat ground.
