The revitalisation project at the Autódromo de Terramar is firmly committed to preserving the architectural heritage of the site.

We are often asked what happened to the Terramar track after its last official race in 1956. Below, some answers to that intriguing question.   Shortly after the Autódromo hosted its last race in 1956, a wealthy Catalan entrepreneur who had made a fortune in America acquired the site in order to set up a

One can cite the revolutionary inventions of Juan de la Cierva, like the autogyro, ancestor of the modern helicopter developed in 1923, or those of Narcis Monturiol, inventor of the first self-propelled submarine in 1864.

After the summer break, the Autódromo de Sitges-Terramar has resumed its activities, like the rest of the surrounding municipality of Sant Pere de Ribes. And while the local "Fiesta Mayor" brought together the public at the start of the summer, today we wanted to pay tribute to the city we call home.   Indeed, the city as we know it today has little to do with what

Following the trail left by the anecdote of the kiss of death that we narrated several weeks ago, today we will tell you about another of the Italian pilot’s skills at the Autòdrom Terramar.
