Moscow Raceway, motorsport track in Russia
Moscow Raceway is a modern motorsport racing facility near the capital with multiple track configurations for different types of racing events. The venue hosts both professional competitions and provides facilities for amateur drivers and enthusiasts.
The first stone was laid on 1 October 2008, with architect Hermann Tilke and Formula One driver David Coulthard present, but the financial crisis halted work. Construction resumed in June 2010 under the Russian-German joint venture Autobahn, with Stroytech-5 as general contractor. The circuit opened on 13–15 July 2012 with a World Series by Renault round, at a total cost of 4.5 billion rubles.
The circuit lies about 95 km west of Moscow along the Novorizhskoye highway (M9), near the villages of Sheludkovo and Fedyukovo in Volokolamsky District. The Grand Prix layout runs counter-clockwise through 15 turns, 9 left and 6 right, with 22 m of elevation change. The site is busy year-round with driving schools, track days and races, so check the calendar before travelling.
