This weekend, the Italian Speed Championship – the pinnacle of national motorcycle racing – takes centre stage at Mugello.

Marking the second round of the season, the event promises a packed weekend of competition, including the Octo Cup-EHBC for Differently Abled Riders, and the Aprilia, Honda, Suzuki, and Yamaha Trophies. Also taking part is the Minimoto School.

Superbike – Production Bike

All eyes are on Alessandro Delbianco. The Yamaha team rider dominated the season opener at Misano with a double win that propelled him to the top of the standings. However, contenders will be out in force at Mugello, starting with reigning champion Michele Pirro (Ducati Barni 51 Racing Lab), who finished second in Race 2 at Misano after crashing in Race 1.

Also vying for the top positions is Luca Vitali, who has quickly found the right feeling with the Broncos Team Ducati and currently sits second in the standings. His teammate Samuele Cavalieri is also ready to battle in the Tuscan hills, lying third overall thanks to a podium and a fourth-place finish at Misano.

In the brand-new Production Bike category, the man to beat is Davide Stirpe. Representing the Ducati Garage 51 Racing Team by DTO, Stirpe claimed an impressive double win in the category’s debut weekend. Behind him, keep an eye on Riccardo Russo (BMW Pistard Racing) and Simone Saltarelli (Aprilia Revo Racing Project), both of whom made the podium in the first two races of the season and are tied on points, just 14 behind Stirpe.

Supersport 600 NG

Centre of attention is Luca Ottaviani, who heads to Mugello off the back of an exhilarating double win at Misano. Among the chasers are Spain’s Xavier Artigas, as well as Federico Fuligni, Andrea Mantovani and Stefano Valtulini – all of whom reached the podium in the opening round. Promising youngsters to watch include Mattia Rato, fresh from competing in the WorldSBK at Cremona. Lorenzo Dalla Porta is also looking for redemption after a lacklustre showing at Misano, hoping to bounce back at his home circuit.

Moto3

The Italy vs Spain battle continues, with reigning champion Marcos Ruda leading the 2025 standings. Just one point behind is Pau Alsina Sanchez, followed by Elia Bartolini (two points adrift) and Vicente Perez Selfa, who was forced to retire in Race 2 at Misano due to a technical issue. The first round delivered fierce competitiveness and plenty of drama right down to the final lap, with riders also competing in the Saturday morning sprint race.

Mugello’s long straight and undulating layout will be a crucial test for all young riders. One to watch is newcomer Fernández Etxeberria, who competes in both the Red Bull Rookies Cup and the World Supersport 300 Championship, having already taken victories in both series this year.

Premoto3

Leading the standings is Talento Azzurro rider Lorenzo Pritelli, who dominated the first round with pole position and two wins. Close behind is Martin Alberto Galiuto, who claimed two podium finishes. Keep an eye on Luana Giuliani, another Talento Azzurro talent rapidly improving this season. At Misano, she celebrated her first podium and also set the Red Bull Fastest Lap in Race 2, earning an extra point and securing third place in the overall standings.

Among the many rookies, expectations are high for Talento Azzurro rider Luca Rizzi, who stepped onto the podium at Misano. It’s a packed programme for the Dunlop CIV’s entry class, which will also tackle the 10-lap Superpole Race on Sunday morning. Noteworthy from Race 1 of the Arrow Round was the Red Bull Fastest Lap by Vincenzo Di Veroli.

Sportbike

The new category made an immediate impact at Misano, and fireworks are expected again at Mugello. Plenty of riders are in the spotlight, particularly those who reached the podium in Round 1 and now lead the standings. First is Bruno Ieraci, followed by pole-sitter Mattia Sorrenti. Alfonso Coppola, reigning Supersport 300 champion, sits a few points back after finishing just shy of the podium in both Misano races.

Also eagerly awaited is the performance of the grid’s only female competitor – Pata Talento Azzurro and reigning CIV Women’s Champion Josephine Bruno. She scored points at Misano, showing she’s right at home in the fiercely competitive Sportbike class. Absent from Mugello will be Pier Francesco Venturini, third overall thanks to two strong showings at Misano.

Come and experience the thrill of the second round of the 2025 CIV in person!

The visit of FIA Safety Delegate and Circuit Inspector John Symes to the Mugello International Circuit concluded successfully, as part of the process for renewing the FIA Grade 1 License. This license is granted only to tracks that meet the highest safety standards required to host all top-tier motorsport competitions, including Formula 1 World Championship events.

Symes, accompanied by Manuele Pirro (ASN Inspector), conducted a thorough inspection of the 5,245-meter Tuscan track. He expressed satisfaction with the ongoing improvements in safety standards implemented by the circuit’s management and the excellent maintenance of the facility, which is owned by Ferrari. As a result, the FIA Grade 1 License has been renewed for the 2025–2028 period.

The Mugello bee family is growing! To mark World Bee Day, the Mugello International Circuit has installed two new beehives inside the iconic San Donato corner, bringing the total number of hives at the track to seven — home to approximately 700,000 bees.

Mugello was the first racetrack in the world to receive the FIA’s prestigious “Achievement of Excellence” award, as well as ISO 20121 certification.

Questa mattina, giovedì 3 aprile, il Mugello Circuit ha accolto la terza edizione del Festival della Sicurezza Stradale, un'importante iniziativa promossa dal Lions Club Mugello in collaborazione con la Polizia Municipale dell’Unione dei Comuni del Mugello e la Fondazione Gabriele Borgogni. L’evento ha visto la partecipazione della pilota motociclistica Matilde Contri, attualmente impegnata nel Campionato Italiano Femminile e nel Campionato Europeo Femminile.

L’iniziativa ha coinvolto un totale di 160 studenti, provenienti da quattro classi di quarta superiore dell’Istituto Giotto Ulivi e quattro classi di terza media – due dell’Istituto di Borgo San Lorenzo e due di Barberino di Mugello.

La mattinata si è articolata in due momenti fondamentali: una conferenza sulla sicurezza stradale, con vari interventi, e un’esperienza pratica di guida sicura. Gli studenti hanno avuto l’opportunità di testare le proprie capacità al volante attraverso simulatori di guida avanzati: il simulatore auto, fornito dall’Automobile Club Italiano, e il simulatore moto, accompagnato dalle spiegazioni tecniche di Palix.

L’evento ha rappresentato un’importante occasione di sensibilizzazione per i giovani, con l’obiettivo di promuovere una maggiore consapevolezza sui rischi della strada.
