A look at the Mugello Circuit: the brakes at San Donato 
 

The Mugello Circuit, one of the most iconic tracks in motorcycle racing, is nestled in the Tuscan hills. Stretching 5,245 meters, it offers an exciting mix of fast corners, straights, and technical hairpins that challenge both riders and bikes. Mugello is renowned for its long main straight, where bikes reach speeds exceeding 350 km/h, demanding impeccable braking system efficiency and extremely precise deceleration management.


Braking at Mugello, though limited in number, ranks among the most demanding in the MotoGP calendar. One of the most critical occurs at the end of the main straight, at the iconic San Donato corner, where riders drop from 337 km/h to 94 km/h in just over 5 seconds. Here, braking systems are subjected to extremely high thermal and mechanical loads, making the Tuscan track an ideal testing ground for technologies developed at the highest levels of Motorsport.
