The Mugello circuit has turns with exotic names like the Casanova Savelli, the Arrabiate 1 and 2, the San Donato, but when the Gran Premio di Italia rolls around it’s a happening for Italians and courageous tourists, who want to see some of the best racing on the planet and enjoy themselves, both during the day and especially at night.

Brit Jamie Robinson and Alpinestars shows you some of the sites in Italy and then takes you to the Mugello for all the marvelous craziness that accompanies the Italian GP, that also includes an age old ritual, track invasion.

However, if you want to be bright eyed and bushy tailed for the races, take Robinson’s advice don’t camp at the Mugello, because even the GP riders can barely sleep because of the noise that comes from rambunctious partying fans and the sound of revving engines that bounce off the hills all night long.

Check out the two photos below to see what tens of thousands of fans can leave behind at the Mugello circuit after a GP race.

Talk about black, but in this case red and yellow magic. Put Valentino Rossi and Ducati together and what do get, presales event tickets going through the roof, at least for the Gran Premio d’Italia at the Mugello that takes place July 3rd.

Dean Adams of Superbike planet called Rossi a one-man ticket generator when the 2010 ticket sales at Laguna Seca jumped a 10% from the previous year, after the Italian announced he’d be racing at the Californian circuit following his leg injury,

While the Mugello circuit promotors announced last week that their first batch of presales to the July event have jumped a massive 45% from last year, chalking it up mainly to the new and finally covered central grandstand, but we know differently, it’s just got to be Italian fans wanting to see if Rossi can be the king of the Mugello even on the Desmosedici GP 11 or if he’ll go bust.
