The “Daniel Bonara” racetrack is located Franciacorta, in Lombardy, a region famous for its wine production in the Brescia province near Bargnana.
The Franciacorta racetrack is an important structure dedicated to engines: it is impeccable from a safety and technological point of view and it is a constantly evolving sports venue created purposely for car and sport racing enthusiasts as well as for the whole family. The racetrack, which can be easily reached from all over Italy, is in fact made up of a track, convention centre, restaurant and leisure facilities: perfect for four-wheel lovers or corporate incentive and team building events in Lombardy. Those lucky ones who have the chance of driving a Ferrari or a Lamborghini on this fantastic racetrack will experience very strong feelings, as it combines breath-taking tight driving conditions with a definitely faster new section, featuring powerful off-throttling, a gorgeous wide bend and direction changes with gradient variations to test even the most experienced drivers. All this in the utmost safety, thanks to Puresport trainers and the wide escape routes.
