The permanent Mugello circuit opened in 1974, carrying Tuscan racing away from the dangerous public-road Mugello course. Long used for motorcycle racing, testing and Ferrari activities, it made its Formula 1 World Championship debut during the reshaped 2020 season.
The 2020 Tuscan Grand Prix marked Ferrari's 1,000th World Championship race. Two major accidents caused red flags and three standing starts before Lewis Hamilton led Valtteri Bottas home.
Across 5.245 km, its 15 corners create a distinct rhythm between braking, precision and acceleration. As a permanent racing circuit, it asks drivers and teams to adapt setup, tyre management and race strategy to the venue's particular constraints, while its clockwise direction shapes the sequence of its most demanding sectors.
