Misano

The “Gran Premio Nolan del Made in Italy e dell’Emilia-Romagna” in Misano begins this Friday and mathematically, it could crown two world champions. One in MotoGP and the other in Moto3. The “Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli” is also located just 14 km from Tavullia, the home of nine-time world champion Valentino Rossi. For his last home race as a MotoGP rider, the yellow “tifosi” will once again celebrate their hero this Friday which will open hostilities with free practice.

In this regard, the latest decree from the Italian government will allow up to 35 fans in the stands each day, or 000 more than at the first meeting in Misano in September. During the latter, the factory driver Ducati Francesco “Pecco” bagnaia had celebrated his second victory in MotoGP and the same will be keen to delay the coronation of Fabio Quartararo which no one really doubts at the end of this season. With three races remaining, the two drivers are separated by 52 points.

On this route located on the banks of the Adriatic, it is Marc Márquez which has the best record with six victories: one in the 125cc category, two in Moto2 and three in MotoGP.
