Tag Archives: Circuit of the Americas

Every year the United States GP at COTA gets closer and closer to being my favourite of the season, can’t be too long until it reaches the top spot. Not only is the track great but the COTA Twitter account is fantastic and last year even helped me track someone down who could give me cowboy hat measurements for a stat!

AMERICAAAAAAA! Back to the land of the free, third time at the Circuit of the Americas and the 65th Formula One Grand Prix in the USA.

Uhhh, right, United States GP post-race stats, sorry for the massive delay but better late than never! Vettel won again making it eight in a row.

‘MURICA! Only the second F1 race to take place at the Circuit of the Americas, but the 35th United States GP and the 64th F1 race in America.

Despite not ever hosting a race before I actually have a lot of, hopefully, interesting stats of the new Circuit of the Americas and American GPs in general. The circuit is 5.516km long with 20 corners, the fourth most corners on the calendar behind Valencia, Singapore and Abu Dhabi. The race will have 56 laps, unless it reaches the two hour cut off, a race distance of 308.896km, which again is the fourth most on the calendar.
