• Paddock access: 

o   Saturday, 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM

o   Sunday, from 7:45 AM

*Boxes with 5 participants/cars: the reason is that the participants are registered into different sessions (morning or afternoon), so there is never 5 cars at the same time in one box; we would ask, therefore, that morning participants leave the boxes as soon as their session ends, and that afternoon participants do not enter until 1.30 pm.

>> Tow Hook - All cars entering the track must be fitted with a tow hook. It may be installed either at the front or at the rear of the vehicle.

>> Vehicle Check-up - Please make sure to inspect the main mechanical components of your car before arrival, including engine, brakes and tyres.

>> Fuel - We recommend arriving at the circuit with a full tank of fuel. The nearest petrol station is located here.

>> Helmet Mandatory - The use of a helmet on track is mandatory for all occupants of the vehicle.

>> Insurance conditions:

Civil liability (in case of accident and damage to the circuit):

•⁠  ⁠⁠maximum coverage 5.000€ (above this amount, cost assumed by the participant)

Personal accidents

•⁠  ⁠maximum coverage 7.500€ (above this amount, cost assumed by the participant)

Passenger/Extra Driver – It is mandatory to sign the liability waiver and purchase a wristband identical to the driver’s wristband, at a cost of 15€, corresponding to the mandatory personal accident insurance fee.

Liability Waiver – All participants who will be driving on track are required to sign the liability waiver.

>> Noise Test - All vehicles may only enter the track after completing and passing the mandatory noise test, which takes place here. You must go to that location in order to have your car tested.
