Therefore, a few weeks ago the Government negotiated the investment of 50 million euros in improvements in the period 2022-2026, at the same time as the end of the current contract with Liberty Media. This represents an increase of 20 million euros compared to what was initially announced for the period 2022-2024.
Improvements to the facilities include the renovation of the pits, the roofs of the stands, the control tower and the pit floors.

This walkway is expected to open on F1 Grand Prixscheduled for the weekend of June 21-23. MotoGP It comes a month early, specifically the weekend of May 24-26.
