Elias Fausto Pirelli test track Brasil

THE PROJECT

On 27 May 2021 Pirelli unveiled Circuito Panamericano, the largest and most modern multi-track complex in Latin America, located in the municipality of Elias Fausto, 110 km from São Paulo. The complex, which covers an area of 1,650,000m², with seven tracks for a total of 22 km, is dedicated to the testing and development of the company’s new tyres.

Dromo was in charge to design and upgrade the facility to modern safety standards and supervising the works.
