European F1 Grand Prix
Circuit Information Page
The name European Grand Prix has been used by several Circuits / Countries.
From 2008 it will be used for 5 years by 'Valencia' - Spain who will host a street race.
The Valencia Street Circuit is divided into four large areas according to the access zone for each of them. Thus, the Principal Area covers the Tinglados where the pit garages are located, the paddock and the main straight grandstands and end of the straight stands. The Malvarrosa area covers the north side and the grandstands next to the bridge. The Nazaret area includes the southern part of the track, from the exit of the bridge through to where the Grao area starts, where the last four stands in the circuit are located.
The Valencia Formula 1 street circuit is framed by the Grao area and more specifically will pass through the inner docks of the port and around the streets of the future neighbourhood that will eventually be built between the railway track, the port and the old bed of the River Turia.
Despite being a street track, its specifications and safety are the same as at a permanent track. The track length is nearly five and a half kilometres long and the width will be at least 14 metres wide including two hard shoulders of asphalt agglomerate identical to those of the track, each a metre wide on each side. Likewise runoff zones will be accounted for on the turns.
The asphalt surface that will be used will be made up of modified bitumen with strong resistance to horizontal traction as applied to the surfaces of racing tracks. It will also have the usual drainage systems and in difference to the rest of the city streets it will not have any manhole or drain covers.
