Race Tracks in the Czech Republic

The Czech Republic has one of the deepest motorsport cultures in Central Europe, anchored by two major permanent circuits: Automotodrom Brno, built in 1987 to replace the legendary 29 km Masarykův okruh street circuit and now a World Superbike Championship venue, and Autodrom Most, home to World Superbike, NASCAR Euro Series and European Truck Racing rounds. Public-road racing survives strongly here too, with the 300 zatáček Gustava Havla street race through Hořice running since 1936 and the Nepomucký trojúhelník near Nepomuk now hosting historic-motorcycle regularity events. The Ecce Homo hillclimb at Šternberk, one of Europe's oldest continuously used hillclimb venues, has run FIA European Hill Climb Championship rounds since 1981. Motocross is represented at MXGP level by Loket, and Autodrom Sosnová near Česká Lípa mixes rallycross, karting and supermoto, having hosted the FIM Supermoto World Championship. The country is also one of speedway's strongholds, with tracks at Pardubice (home of the historic Zlatá přilba/Golden Helmet), Prague, Plzeň, Liberec, Slaný, Chabařovice, Březolupy and Mariánské Lázně. Karting runs through club circuits and multi-purpose facilities such as Steel Ring in Třinec. The country has no purpose-built ovals or drag strips.
