    Track Character

    Twenty turns over 3.426 miles, the FIA Grade 1 home of the United States Grand Prix and one of the most complete circuits in the country. It opens with a steep uphill run to a hairpin at Turn 1, then flows into a high-speed esses sequence lifted in spirit from the world's great tracks. Austin heat is a serious factor, baking tires and drivers through a Texas summer. Advanced in every sense, and worth every degree of preparation.
