Just a few days after the death of Marco Simoncelli and the pressing rquest by thousands of fans that launched a petition to Misano World Circuit to be renamed as a tribute to the late rider, the Misano World Circuit announced in November, that they would adopt the name of Simoncelli, and today in a brief press conference Dr.
Trevi, president of Santamonica SpA (owners of the circuit) and the Simoncelli family, presented the new name and logo.
The circuit will now be known as “Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli“ and the new logo was created by Aldo Drudi.
While the Italian designer couldn’t completely change the look of circuit’s name and logo for legal reasons (bureaucracy in Italy is always complicated), he did highlight the two red L’s – the red bands were also part of Sic’s AGV helmet that he designed – as a symbol of looking towards the future, where the two lines never never meet and continue to infinity.
