From the Rimini Riviera to the arid landscape of Aragon, Misano and MotorLand Aragon hail two very different challenges for the grid – in two very different settings. Winding up from the coast of Catalunya into the province of Teruel, the blue of the Mediterranean fades as the spectacular town of Alcañiz comes into view. Here, racing is woven into the history of the town – and MotorLand Aragon is its modern outpost. Technical, challenging and world class, it’s a canvas that has been splashed with both incredible victory and unassailable defeat, and one that once again could stage one of the tipping points of the season in 2017. Equal points, equal wins, and everything in the balance.
