Iran is building a race track – but not for F1

Details of a new racing circuit in Iran have been confirmed.

But, contrary to earlier reports published elsewhere, the track is not being designed to be suitable for F1 cars.

The iLand Race Resort is being built in Parand outside Tehran and will include an FIA Grade 2-licensed circuit, making it suitable for lower categories of racing up to GP2.

The 5km circuit, created by Apex Circuit Design, will be built over a natural topography range of 22m. TSI Group, the company behind the project, say it will be built in the style of celebrated circuits such as Spa-Francorchamps, the Nurburgring Nordschleife and Donington Park.

Apex’s managing director Clive Bown told F1 Fanatic: “Like many of our other projects our principle focus is on coming up with something that’s commercially sustainable.

“We have developed their master plan, that was originally undertaken by Tilke Gmbh, to integrate it more completely into the much bigger plan for iLand, which is absolutely vast.

“It will be exciting and feel like a classic race circuit, and all of that is very much in keeping with the philosophy we promote in our circuit design.”
