• Sochi Autodrom is the first and only circuit hosting the Formula 1 Russian Grand Prix.
• The venue has been designed by Tilke Gmbh & Co., the head of which — Hermann Tilke — is the author of most of the modern Formula 1 tracks.
• Looking at a map of the track, your eye can’t help but be drawn to the long Turn 3 – a 750m constant-radius left-hander. Another distinguishing feature of the track is the combination of technical 90-degree turns and high-speed straight lines and bends.
• It has a modern infrastructure suitable for holding international motorsport competitions of the highest level.
• It is the only Russian circuit that operates all year round.
• The circuit is integrated into the Olympic Park built for the 2014 Winter Olympic Games.
• The external infrastructure of the Olympic Park includes modern hotels of various categories and a convenient transport system around the airport with numerous railway and road junctions.
• It has permanent team buildings located opposite team garages. This allows competitors to operate without their motorhomes, thereby considerably simplifying logistics.
• The Sochi Autodrom race control building has a video control system with Real-Time Full HD technology, consisting of 56 screens. The video surveillance system is based on 45 Speed Dome trackside cameras.
