Access to circuits with low costs is perhaps the main key to the growth of young riders. Italy, in this respect, is lagging somewhat behind. Moreover, one of the few tracks that's accessible practically all year round - the Vallelunga circuit owned by ACI - is struggling to find funding to expand, even if it's doing a lot and also has plans for a Kart track.
Things are different in Spain, so the Aspar Circuit, created thanks to the passion of Jorge 'Aspar' Martines, has quickly become a benchmark for training riders, including several MotoGP role players.
"We created a project that allows a rider to train in different ways over the course of a week," Aspar explained. Because of big names, such as Márquez, Quartararo, Viñales, Mir, and Martín who train there frequently, it has quickly expanded its user base.
The facility offers multiple types of tracks - from dirt to flat track, from small bikes to big bikes - designed to prevent monotony and mental overload. The main track, which is 2.4 km long, isn't very big, but it's very physical and technical. Riders particularly appreciate this characteristic.
Access is flexible: you can ride by paying a daily fee when the track is open, or choose annual formulas with dedicated pits for riders who train continuously. Thiis model has turned the circuit into a truly modern and functional training center.
