| 1 - San Donato The tight bend at San Donato is the first after the start and is also the slowest. |
2 - Luco Luco corner rounds off to the left, and is the first of a long set of bends. |
3 - Poggio Secco The highest point of the track and the back straight down to the corner at Materassi begins here. |
 |
 |
 |
| 4 - Materassi The corner is similar to the corner at Luco though the swing is not as closed. |
5 - Borgo San Lorenzo Engaging entry, fast exit. |
6/7 - Casanova / Savelli Downhill run continues at breakneck speed: slope is tricky. |

 |
 |
| 8 - Arrabbiata 1 First of the 2 much discussed Arrabbiata bends, the lowest point on the track. |
9 - Arrabbiata 2 Just as spectacular as Arrabbiata 1, Arrabbiata 2 has a variable height and angle. |
