Cremona Circuit on track to welcome WorldSBK

Following last year’s announcement of Cremona Circuit becoming a new MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship venue, the circuit operational team, alongside their providers, technicians, and staff, have been working tirelessly to ensure every detail is meticulously attended to.

1. Resurfacing of the track: The track has been resurfaced at Turns 5-6 and Turns 11-12-13, ensuring a uniform surface suitable for the high-performance demands of WorldSBK machinery.

2. Safety enhancements: New protection systems have been installed along the entire circuit, including air fences, safety barriers, and improved run-off areas, guaranteeing maximum safety for both riders and spectators.

3. Public facilities: Work is underway on the areas where grandstands will be positioned for fans attending the event. These will offer optimal views from every angle of the circuit and ensure safe and efficient logistics. Additionally, these areas are being equipped with necessary amenities, including new refreshment areas and spaces for collateral events, enhancing the overall spectator experience.

4. Bridges, paddock, and pit boxes: Significant work includes the connections between various areas through infrastructures and bridges. These have been designed, constructed, and installed in record time according to the project. A new glass-fronted building is being erected in the paddock, which will house Race Direction and Timekeeping, additional offices to support the event, and the various security systems required by the project.

Riders and teams already got a first taste of the Cremona Circuit with some private tests held in May, but the venue is now ready to welcome WorldSBK in anger in less than two months’ time. As Round 9 of 12 on the 2024 calendar, it promises to be a pivotal moment of the title chase as action unfolds in Lombardy again on September 20-22, 2024.
