The Autodromo Internazionale del Mugello is in Scarperia e San Piero, in Tuscany, in the Florence area. The permanent circuit is 5.245 kilometres long and run clockwise, with 15 corners and a straight of 1.141 kilometres. The grandstands hold 50,000 spectators.
Racing at Mugello dates back to the 1920s. The events were held on public roads, starting in the village of Scarperia. The road course was 66.2 kilometres long, took in the Futa Pass among other places, and counted towards the World Sportscar Championship in 1965, 1966 and 1967. A serious accident involving members of the public during a test damaged the reputation of the event, and the 1970 race was the last on the road course. The present closed circuit was built in 1973 and opened in 1974.
Ferrari has owned the track since 1988 and uses it for Formula 1 testing. In 2012 every team except HRT used it for an in-season test. The Italian motorcycle Grand Prix is also held there every year.
Mugello did not join the Formula 1 World Championship until 2020. The calendar had been rearranged because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and on 10 July it was announced that the Tuscan Grand Prix would be the ninth round of the season. The race on 13 September 2020 was the first Formula 1 event at the circuit and also Scuderia Ferrari's 1000th Grand Prix. Lewis Hamilton won for Mercedes.
