DUCATI GRANDSTAND ON TOUR DURING THE 2008 MOTOGP CHAMPIONSHIP
Tickets are now on sale for the Mugello Grandstand. This
year the Ducati Grandstand Tour will take in 9 international
MotoGP races.
Following the success of the Ducati Grandstand at Italian
rounds last year, Ducati has decided to use the same formula
at other MotoGP rounds around the world.
It will now be possible to follow your heroes trackside at
the Italian circuits of Mugello and Misano, but also at the
European rounds of Le Mans, Sachsenring and Valencia, as well
as at the international events at Laguna Seca and Indianapolis
(U.S.A.), Phillip Island (Australia) and Motegi (Japan).
On 1st June 2008, the Ducati MotoGP Team will take to the
track, more revved up than ever and ready to take part in
the first of two Italian MotoGP world championship rounds,
at Mugello, one of the hallowed grounds of international motorcycling.
Last year, more than 3000 Ducati fans were lucky enough to
witness the qualifying practice and races from one of the
most spectacular sections of the Tuscan track: the Correntaio
curve. This spot has now earned a special place in the hearts
of the Ducatisti and is famous for its action-packed racing.
This year, Ducati is once more offering its fans the chance
to experience the excitement of live Mugello MotoGP, surrounded
by fellow fanatics. Ticket holders will be able to join in
with the official fan club members, who in previous years
have ‘paintedâ€TM Mugello red
with their unstoppable passion for the Borgo Panigale machines.
Entertainment in the Ducati grandstand will be arranged as
usual by the Desmodromiclub of Rome.
As well as making it possible to watch your heroes race around
from one of its most strategic points, the famous “Correntaioâ€
curve. The ticket will also entitle you to a ‘goodie
bagâ€TM full of exclusive gifts. And so that you
donâ€TMt miss any of the action, a 33m2 giant screen
will be positioned next to the grandstand. Last but not least,
there is the convenience of a reserved parking space for your
bike and a free cloakroom service to store your gear.
Tickets are valid for the qualifying sessions, held on 30th
and 31st May 2008, and for the race on Sunday 1st June. In
addition to access to the Ducati grandstand, in which you
can choose your own seat, tickets act as a pass to most viewing
areas around the racetrack. The ‘Pedonale
Provincialeâ€TM pedestrian entrance to the racetrack
(located next to the Palagio entrance) is recommended for
access to the grandstand.
The big difference this year is that it is possible to book
tickets well in advance, at a special price. Through the official
Ducati Store network, if purchased between 19th March and
15th April, tickets cost just 190 Euros, while from 16th April
until stocks last, the price is 220 Euros and the tickets
are available exclusively via the website www.ducati.com.
