Anyone raced here?
Looks like this will be my first road race, and it's flat as a pancake by the look of it, and very wide.
I've not raced at that circuit, but I used to live not far away.
I'll just say that Aintree isn't known for being a mountainous region.
Plenty of [url= https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=aintree+motorcycle+racing ]Youtube videos[/url] showing the motorbike racing around the circuit to give you an idea.
You may need these for the hedges though.... 😆

One of my colleagues races classic motorbikes and competed there last weekend. He said its just very flat only 4 corners but the patches that have been resurfaced (one on the apex of a corner) are about 1-2 inch proud so he had to adjust his line all weekend. Not sure if that will impact you or not! He also said the track cleaner they use was awful, spewing oil behind it making it pretty slippy in places. Don't think he helped though when one of his bikes blew up!
+1 I've raced it on a motorbike. Flat, 4 corners.
