Circuit
Cremona Circuit is a permanent road course near San Martino del Lago in southern Lombardy, Italy, roughly 25 km east of the city of Cremona. Conceived by brothers Marzio and Alessandro Canevarolo, it was inaugurated on 7 July 2011 and originally known as the Circuito di San Martino del Lago, measuring 3.450 km. After a financial collapse and closure in 2015, new owners Roberto and Manuel Mazzucato revived the venue, renamed it Cremona Circuit and dedicated it to local motorcycle ace Angelo Bergamonti. A major redesign in 2021, drawing on the work of circuit architect Jarno Zaffelli, extended and modernised the layout to bring it up to national racing standards. A further upgrade in 2024 stretched the lap to its current 3.768 km with 13 turns and lifted spectator capacity. That work secured a five-year contract to host the Superbike World Championship, whose inaugural Cremona round in September 2024 drew packed crowds and a Race 1 win for local hero Danilo Petrucci. The flat Po Valley setting, framed by surrounding rice fields, makes it a convenient test venue for teams based in nearby Emilia-Romagna and Milan. An adjacent CIK-standard kart track and frequent track days keep the facility busy through the week.
