If it were not possible in Lombardy: MUGELLO ready to jump in instead of MONZE

Mayor Federico Ignesti reiterated that Mugello was still ready to run a Formula 1 race if it could not be carried out in Monza, located in Lombardy, which has been particularly hard hit by the coronavirus.

It is not yet clear at this time whether the standard host of the race for Grand Prix of Italy in Monza could perform his event, even for closed doors, although some sources mention that they could Monza also held with spectators, which many do not believe.

"I very much hope that the Monza race will be able to take place, at least in part, in the presence of spectators,”He said, for example Flavio Briatore Italian news agency Adnkronos. But if that doesn't happen, Federico Ignesti, prefect Scarperie and San Piera, believes it could be the solution Mugello, which is owned Ferrari. "Mugello has everything he can to run the Italian Grand Prix instead of Monza,”He told colleagues from Journal of Sport.

According to Federico Ignesti, mayor of Scarperie e San Piero, the Ferrari-owned Mugello would be an ideal replacement for Monza if the race could not be held in Lombardy.

"If the situation in Lombardy does not allow the race to take place in September, Mugello would be an ideal choice for a race behind closed doors. We don't know yet if we will have such an opportunity, but we are ready to find the necessary funds, even if our chance is one in a hundred,He added Ignes. "Negotiations with the national car club ACI are already underway and everyone in our region is ready for such an attempt."
