Circuit de Calafat, circuito motoristico della Spagna
Circuit de Calafat is a motorsport racing track in La Ametlla de Mar measuring about 3,250 meters (10,660 feet) with 16 curves that test driving technique. The facility includes well-maintained asphalt surfaces, spectator areas, garages, and workshop spaces where teams prepare their vehicles.
The track was built to host various types of motor races and events, becoming part of the local sports scene for many years. Over time, it evolved into a regional hub for racing enthusiasts where local competitions take place and motorsport is shared as a community hobby rather than a large commercial enterprise.
The track serves as a gathering place for the local motorsport community, where drivers and enthusiasts share their passion for racing. It reflects a practical approach to motorsport where speed and skill are valued in a friendly, accessible setting rather than as a large commercial event.
The track is easily accessible by road from La Ametlla de Mar, located about 800 meters (half a mile) from the sea, making it convenient to combine a visit with time at the beach. Arriving early on race weekends is recommended, as the local community gathers throughout the day and the venue is most active during these periods.
The facility offers the rare opportunity to drive high-performance sports cars such as Ferraris and participate in specialized drift training on a low-grip surface designed for learning vehicle control in challenging conditions. These experiences set it apart from a typical racing venue.
