Korea International Circuit-Yeongam (GP course) Track Map
The GP Course at Korea International Circuit in Yeongam represents the full Formula One-specification layout at this modern facility that hosted the Korean Grand Prix from 2010-2013. The GP designation indicates the complete 5.615-kilometer championship configuration utilizing all circuit sections including the extended back straight and technical infield complex. This variant serves the circuit's role as South Korea's premier international motorsport venue despite limited utilization following Formula One's departure.
Operating the GP Course showcases Korea International Circuit's ambitious infrastructure built to FIA Grade 1 specifications at significant public expense in South Jeolla Province. The circuit's isolation in a partially-developed area created utilization challenges following Formula One's exit. South Korea's continental climate creates distinct seasonal racing windows. The GP Course configuration represents Korea's brief Formula One era and ongoing efforts to establish sustainable motorsport operations at this comprehensive facility built to international championship standards but struggling with economic viability in the post-F1 period.
