Sydney Motorsport Park is a racing complex that hosts automobile and motorcycling racing events from 1990 in Eastern Creek, less than 40 km away from Sydney's Central Business District (CBD) in Australia. The track has a Grade 2 license from FIA, suitable for Formula 2 and Grand Touring competitions. Large crowds of racing enthusiasts, aspiring drivers, and motorsports fans attend the events organized in this racing complex by the Australian Racing Drivers Club. Even though people think of Sydney as a sunny city year-round, it receives an average of 1.22 meters of rain a year, twice as much as London, so it is not rare to find wet asphalt in the circuit. Temperature averages 13° to 22°C, ideal for outdoor activities like racing.
There are four possible configurations for the racetrack: the 3.93-km (2.42-mile) Gardner GP Circuit, the 2.8-km (1.7-mile) Druitt North Circuit, the 4.5-km (2.8-mile) Brabham Circuit, and the 1.8-km (1.11-mile) Amaroo (South) Circuit. Some of the most eye-catching features in Sydney Motorsport Park are T1, the fastest turn in Australia, with high speeds around 250 km/h (155 mph); the impressive elevation changes and high-banking of the whole Amaroo Circuit, or the downhill turn combination from T7 to T10.
The Druitt North Circuit is the fastest layout in Sydney Motorsport Park for a good reason: it consists of a long stretch of straightaways and fast sweepers only interrupted by a hairpin turn T2 and a succession of tight left-handers at T7 and T8. The average speed in the Druitt North Circuit is 90 mph, with an average lap time of 1:07.726. The northern straightaway or Main Pit Lane sees top speeds of around 250 km/h (155 mph), with excited fans in the grandstands taking part in the action.
