Despite of its Odessa origin, Tsunami RT - Centro Porsche Padova got used to call Misano its home circuit long time ago, because it is San-Marino where is our team has the base, so, it is the correct name!

 

The Misano round has not been leaving the Porsche Carrera Cup Italia calendar for years, however, it regularly migrates within the season: the series takes place there one time in September, the other time in May... This year Misano becomes the «equator» of the Italian Cup: the fourth round, the middle of the season!

 

Drivers have to give particular attention to the purity of trajectories: the curbs are low there (the track was meant to be used for the motorcycle racing), that is why many drivers cut the trajectories reluctantly, and are severely penalized by the referees for that.
