PARIS, Aug 30 — Almost 3,000 Formula One fans will be allowed to attend next month’s Tuscany Grand Prix at Mugello, the Italian circuit said yesterday, ending a succession of behind closed door races this season.

The race, on the weekend of September 11-13, will also be the 1,000th in the sport for Ferrari.

However, the Italian Grand Prix, slated for Monza the week before Mugello, will remain behind closed doors, a legacy of the strict health protocols introduced in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.

Of the 2,880 fans allowed at Mugello, 2,000 can buy tickets from September 1.
