CIRCUIT OF THE AMERICAS
AUSTIN, USA
The emblem of the Circuit of the Americas is the look-out, from where the whole track can be surveyed.
During the planning of the 5.5 km long track our team resorted to the collected know-how in racetrack design of the past 20 years and took traditional Grand-Prix tracks like Silverstone, Hockenheim and Istanbul as an example. Caused by the popularity of motorsports in the USA, our team had a clear aim: the combination of American racetrack virtues with a modern track design with FIA Grade I.
