Title: Circuit of Wales
Post by: Lucky Ed on 04, January, 2016, 09:18:45 PM
It looks like the new circuit in Wales is going to happen, hopefully to be ready for Moto GP in 2017.

I hope this gets started and more importantly get finished. There is money there at present but they will need to attract big crowds on a regular basis to make it pay back. It should be a great undulating circuit if built as described.

Looking at the aerial plan it looks like quite a safe design with good run-outs too.  Cant wait!

Looks like a really great circuit, will track days be allowed?

Im more excited than anyone else for this as its 20 mins from me but its still a huge project and with rockingham still not making money after being opened 15 years and sold half way through its short life I just seems way to optimistic the figures of attendance and profit just seems plucked out of thin air.

But if it does get finished I will be a regular there that's for sure.
