Track of The Month – November 2022

 Istanbul Park – Turkey

The Race Centre’s Track of the Month for November is the Istanbul Park Circuit in Turkey.

Istanbul Park is a 3.3-mile circuit constructed in 2005. This fantastic circuit has been used for Formula 1, GP2, and MotoGP, to name a few big events.

The most notable feature of this stunning circuit is the legendary quad-apex turn 8, quite a challenge for the drivers to keep the speed up back in 2005 – 2011, however, the 2021 F1 cars can take this bend flat-out!

Come to The Race Centre this month to see if you are up to the challenge of Istanbul Park.
