The F1 Stat Blog Your Home of F1 Statistics

Accurate information on the lengths of straights in Formula One is hard to come by, often with very different lengths from different websites and sources, so I have done my best to find the real lengths of the longest straights from reliable sources.

It's not really particularly easy to come up with a lot of stats for a track that's only been raced at once, with every single lap being led by Sebastian Vettel, but I shall try my best anyway! The Buddh International Circuit is a 5.137km circuit with 16 corners and 60 laps, a race distance of 308.220km, the 7th longest race distance of the year. The lap record was (surprise surprise) set by Sebastian Vettel last year with a time of 1:27.249, an average speed of 122kph, exactly the same average speed as Sepang.
