The Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Team have travelled to the Autodromo del Mugello for Round 7 of the 2024 MotoGP World Championship. It’s a race weekend that the Yamaha Motor Racing staff always look forward to, as they consider the Gran Premio d'Italia their home GP.
Fabio Quartararo has great memories of racing at the Mugello circuit with Yamaha. His brilliant win at the Italian GP in 2021 and his strong second place in 2022 underline why he is considered one of the most talented riders in the paddock. The Frenchman tested at the Mugello track about two weeks ago and is hoping that the extra data here can help him climb up from 12th place in the overall rankings.
After his Catalan GP Race was compromised by technical difficulties, Álex Rins is keen for a do-over in Mugello this weekend. The Spaniard has yet to visit the premier class podium in Tuscany, though he came close in 2019, securing fourth place. He did, however, frequent the Italian GP rostrum in the Moto3 class, securing a second and a third place in 2013 and 2014 respectively. This weekend, he aims to score solid points again and move up in the championship standings from his current 21st place.
Mugello is considered one of the most beautiful tracks on the calendar, thanks to its mixture of uphill and downhill sections and a variety of fast and slow turns. The 5245-metre-long Tuscan circuit hosted its first MotoGP event back in 1976 and became a permanent fixture in 1991. The Italian GP is famous for its great atmosphere and is said to be a 'must-be-at event' for motorcycle fans.
