I often see the name of "Magioni" in UK language portals, and it's a common mistake, maybe for the assonance of the E and I when pronouncing that letters with your phonetics. The real name of the "Autodromo dell'Umbria" is actually "Magione", and that final "E" should be pronounced with the sound that letter E assumes when you pronounce words like "Elephant" or "Element", just to make a couple of examples. As a general rule, when pronouncing italian words, the "E" letter will never assume the sound of the letter "I" in any word. To be more clear, when you find the letter E in any part of a word, the right sound is always that of the words "Elephant" or "Element". At the opposite, when you find the letter "I" in any italian word, you should pronounce that letter with the sound you use for words like "internet", or "indoor". As your letter "I" sometimes assumes a different sound, I add that you'll never find a word in Italian in which you'll pronounce the letter "I" with the sound you use at the start of the word "Irish" or "Iron". In this case, an italian word would start with the diphthong "AI". You have a good italian word that encloses what you learned so far by this post. That word is "Airone". Airone (heron in english) has the first dipghtong (AI) that you'd pronounce like the I of Irish, but the last letter "E" must be pronounced with the sound it assumes for "Elephant".
