Gran Premio San Marino 2012: 16 September
Misano circuit 2007 will be known as the place where Rossi finally decisively lost his world championship hopes. A shame, since the circuit is closest to his home town of Tavullia and his fans turned out in droves! In 2008 he made good and the fans went wild!
Last year this was the staff pick as our most fun event -- and this year promises to be better, with an atmosphere that will border on pandemonium. Unlike most other destinations, the Italians go MotoGP mad and this spreads throughout the town, nightlife and people. Riccione - the lovely beach town that we are based - hosts a week long MotoGP pavilion, bars and restaurant flaunt number 46 flags, and one gets the distinct feeling that the entire population migrates to the track in the morning and the town in the evening. To say this is a passionate place would be an understatement, as discovered by one of our reps who rather foolishly wore a Casey Stoner T-shirt on the trip to Tavullia!
San Marino is one of our bigger events, with local Italian and English speaking staff, several coaches and hotels, and of course our renown parties. We offer three packages for the weekend, with something for everyone! A Classic package puts you in a cozy 3* hotel in Riccione, our Superior is in one of our 4* hotels and is our party HQ, and for VIPs we have a brilliant Deluxe Package in the top 5* hotel in the region. Speaking of VIP: We have of course the VIP Village, and this year we add the great value Pole Position Club with private grandstand, catering and our private pit & paddock tours.
Viewing is excellent, with many TV screens and some excellent spots. Grandstands A, B and C are covered and reserved seating, which of course makes them quite attractive, but you actually get a better view from the cheaper grandstand D at the bottom of the longest straight into the downhill tight triple right. For he best value experience, we recommend getting a Prato 2 on Saturday and a D on Sunday (you can do this by booking a 1 day ticket and selecting Saturday Prato add-on) The whole circuit only holds about 60,000 people, so we do urge early purchase. It will sell out.
We time our coaches to miss the worst of the traffic - which in any case isn't too bad (about 30 minutes from track Sunday), as well as get special access to the circuit - last year we dropped customers virtually right on the grandstands!
Finally, we round out the weekend with several special events: On Thursday evening, we are VIP guests at the star-studded 'DediKato' tribute and charity do (with most MotoGP riders). On Friday evening we have our traditional welcome party, with guest speakers (last year we had an entire team!); Saturday night dinner INSIDE the MotoGP paddock with a team and riders; Sunday a traditional Italian dinner which turned into a great post-event party; and a VERY special trip Monday to the Ducati factory, then Tavullia, the hometown and shrine to Rossi; and San Marino - a lovely spot and a shopping paradise!
This is also a GREAT family destination - kids love the seaside and playgrounds, and we can organise babysitting. Definitely one to plan a few extra days at!
