A new speed symbol at the Misano World Circuit

The expansion of the PIT Building redesigns the starting straight line, transforming one of the most iconic spaces of the Misano World Circuit into an architectural landmark that combines identity, dynamism, and innovation.

An expansion that redesigns the perspective of the circuit

The expansion of the PIT Building at Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, carried out by Mijic Architects Srl, focuses on the existing building overlooking the start and finish straight, the visual and emotional heart of the circuit. The new volume, approximately 112 additional meters for a total extension of almost 200 meters, aims to create a strong architectural statement, recognizable from every point of the track, and capable of telling the identity of the Misano World Circuit. The expansion not only enhances the functionality of the structure but redefines its image, becoming an iconic element of the sports complex.

Enhanced functionality with new technical equipment

The project introduces a series of spaces designed to improve the operation of teams and the organization of sports events. On the ground floor, six new boxes are equipped with technical areas, storage, and services designed to meet the needs of different motor racing categories. The flexibility of the environments ensures adaptability to international races and minor competitions, expanding the range of events that can be hosted. In this way, the intervention fits into a broader vision that considers the circuit as high-performance infrastructure, in line with the best architecture projects dedicated to contemporary motorsport.

Experience, hospitality, and vision: the heart of the expansion

The first floor is dedicated to hospitality and hosts VIP lounges, sponsor areas, and meeting rooms designed to offer comfort, visibility, and an immersive experience. The internal layout promotes direct contact with the track, giving guests a close perception of speed. The upper level further enhances interaction with the circuit: panoramic terraces and observation areas become true viewpoints overlooking the adrenaline of the race, helping to strengthen the media and scenic value of the entire complex.

A dynamic interplay between glass surfaces and metal facades

The architectural language chosen for the expansion clearly expresses the concepts of modernity, dynamism, and visual identity. The facade facing the track is characterized by large glass surfaces that establish a direct relationship between the interior and exterior, enhancing the connection with the sporting activity. On the opposite side, a sinuous facade covered with metal slats in the typical tones of the automotive world emerges: a vibrant skin that changes with light and perspective, transforming the building into a dynamic object, almost in motion, even when the track is silent.
