Circuit de Lédenon, French racing circuit
Circuit de Lédenon is a motor racing circuit in Lédenon, Gard, whose main track measures 3,150 metres with a width of 9 to 12 metres and runs anti-clockwise. It sits in a natural bowl: the lowest point is 173.78 metres at the Cuvette corner and the highest 208.20 metres at the end of the straight, a drop of over 34 metres. A red-and-white kerb lines the inside of the turns, with pale gray run-off and a barrier of stacked tires, white on one side and red on the other.
Jean-Claude and Sylvie Bondurand, motor sport enthusiasts, decided in 1970 to build a circuit at Lédenon using their own funds. It was homologated for the first time on 16 June 1973. The first major races came in 1977 with Super Touring and Formula Renault, and the track has been in use continuously since.
