CIRCUIT PAUL RICARD
Read moreThe Castellet track, or circuit Paul-Ricard, celebrates its 50th anniversary! Created in 1970 by Paul Ricard, the famous automobile circuit is a mythical track where the French F1 Grand Prix takes place every year. Born from the very impulse of Paul Ricard with the support of drivers such as Jean-Pierre Beltoise and Henri Pescarolo in the 1970s, it is one of the most beautiful tracks in Europe, spread over 5.8 km, which can boast no less than 13 bends and a straight line called Mistral 1.8 km long. In the Var region, the spirit of its builder blows the spirit of its builder by also being a leisure site dedicated to motor sports. The 964 m long, illuminated go-kart track offers five different layout solutions. Multi GT driving courses are organized on Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Audi to live an extraordinary experience. Baptisms on the track, in the company of professional drivers, give you the opportunity to experience the sensations of driving aboard a racing car from the inside. The F1 simulators of the Grand Prix Hall remain, if you don't dare to put on a suit and helmet. At the heart of this hyper-structure is a 964-metre karting track where you can take part in driving courses.

The Dix Mille Tours du Castellet is also the presence of car clubs (vehicles before 1971 or possibly more recent) that can participate in driving on the track, but also the presence of merchants and exhibitors.
