National Driving Academy-NAVAK Full

The Serbian National Driving Academy racetrack, or NAVAK Circuit, is a 1.83-mile (2.94-km) racing facility paved in Subotiste, a village at a 41-minute ride west of Belgrade, Serbia. It is a twisty and narrow road course specifically designed as a training ground for novel drivers and aspiring racers. The academy also offers driving courses for first responders, passenger vehicles, and cargo truck operators. The Continental climate of Serbia offers extreme weather conditions depending on the season, with an even distribution of rain throughout the year. 

The average speed at the NAVAK Circuit is 75 mph (120 km/h), but in the 1.2-km (0.74-km) straight racers can develop up to 270 km/h (167 mph). There are 15 turns on the racetrack, most of them with a tight radius forcing drivers to work hard on their steering wheel. The corners snake on a compact layout over flat terrain, alternating directions in a frantic manner. There are also fast-paced sweepers like the Parabolika-like spin at the easternmost part of the track. The ample runoffs, soft cubs, and the open spaces around the road configure a safe environment ideal for aspiring drivers to perfect their skills and where experienced drivers can take risks to get the most out of the track.
