Istanbul Park, Motorsport racing track in Akfırat, Turkey.

The Istanbul Park Circuit extends across 5.338 kilometers with 14 turns, including the multi-apex Turn 8 and a 650-meter main straight.

The racing facility opened in 2005 after a 40 million euro investment, with 27 million euros provided by the Turkish government and private funding.

Formula One drivers consider Turn 8 as one of the most demanding corners in motorsport racing due to its physical requirements and technical precision.

The circuit contains seating for 125,000 spectators and sits 7 kilometers from Sabiha Gokcen Airport, allowing quick access for international visitors.

The track surface spans across four different elevation levels, creating natural speed variations throughout the racing line.
