Buddh International Circuit Notes

The Buddh International Circuit is a 3.19-mile (5.13-km) FIA Grade 1 racing facility designed by Hermann Tilke to be the venue for the Formula 1 Indian Grand Prix. The circuit hosted Formula 1 races every year from 2011 to 2013, along with high-profile racing events like the Formula Regional Indian Championship or the Supra SAEINDIA. Its location inside the Jaypee Sports City complex, an hour away from downtown New Delhi,  guarantees a regular attendance of motorsports fans for any events hosted in the raceway. Temperature tends to be high in Delhi's rainy summers and pleasant during the remaining seasons, which tend to be dry, so taking notice of the weather forecast is a good choice.

The Buddh International Circuit has a highly technical 16-turn layout that combines high-speed straights with sharp corners producing heavy downshifting sectors. It starts in the second-longest straightaway and leads into a multi-apex right-hander with an elevation change that transitions seamlessly into a long turn number two. The blind corner number three is the tightest in the circuit and leads racers into the long back straightaway, where they reach a speed of up to 260 km/h (161 mph). The straight ends on a 60-degree right-hander, taking drivers into the most challenging stretch of the circuit, with 12 corners snaking in quick succession to thrill their maneuvering skills.
