2013 FORMULA 1 KOREAN GRAND PRIX (Yeongam) 04 - 06 Oct

Circuit length: 5.615km
Race distance: 308.630km
Laps: 55

Designed by Hermann Tilke, the track at Yeongam is a part-permanent, part-temporary venue, destined eventually, when the full plan is realised, to have a marina, offices and residential property around the final sector of the lap. Korea has hosted only two races so far, the first in 2010. It is a mix of different concepts, with a long straight and some high speed corners early on in the lap, and then a series of tight blind bends at the end. The slow sections contribute to making this one of the slowest average speed laps of any permanent circuit.
