Staff

Our staff is made up of people with a motorsport background and events experience.

They are motorsport experts and not simply guides, as they need to explain all the race features not only to seasoned guests but also to newcomers into the discipline. They all speak 2/3 different languages and they share their knowledge with passion to allow each guest to live their once-in-a-lifetime experience.

They are experienced in coping with unexpected weather conditions, schedule changes, delays, cancellations and changes to part of the planned program. They take excellent care of guests and are careful and attentive to every detail, to make their experience as comfortable and safe as possible.
