The Formula 4 United States Championship Powered by Honda staged its first race at CoTA in 2017 with WEC and Formula 1. It’s been a staple on the F4 U.S. schedule ever since. Last season during the United States Grand Prix, it broke a world entry record, fielding 38 F4 drivers from around the globe.

20 Turns, 3.427 Miles, Clockwise, 133 Feet in Elevation Changes

 

  1. What are some special characteristics of the track?

There is a steep, uphill run into the hairpin Turn 1, which has become the venue's signature corner. Turns 3 through 6 look not dissimilar to Silverstone's high-speed Maggotts/Becketts; Turns 12 through 15 give a nod to Hockenheim's stadium section; and Turns 16 through 18 will mirror the famous, multi-apex Turn 8 at Istanbul Park.
