| Terrain | The new circuit at the Porsche driving experience centre is built to test Porsche cars to their limits. You will be testing your running ability on this beautiful track. Expect fast sweeping corners, switch backs, undulations and more. Don’t worry we have left the ice hill out for the time being! Then it is onto the world famous Silverstone Grand Prix for the best high speed bike course in the UK. Racing alongside the ghosts of Schumacher, Hill, Mansell and Hamilton you never know; some of the present F1 grid might show up for a race! Once the bike is over it's back onto the Porsche Circuits for the final run to the chequered flag. |
