Rockingham Motor Speedway

Rockingham opened in January 2001 and is now Europe's fastest racing circuit.

This international motorsport venue is the first purpose built race track in the UK since Brooklands in 1907 and has transformed the industrial wasteland left by the British steel works into an asset that the people of Corby and Northamptonshire are justly proud of.

Rockingham is Europe's fastest banked oval racing circuit, with the unbeaten lap record for the 1.5 mile oval set at 24.719 seconds by Tony Kanaan in his Ford/Lola Champ Car on 22nd September, 2001 - an average speed of 215.397mph! The circuit offers multiple in-field circuit configurations, featuring hairpins, straights and chicanes with ample passing and run-off areas.

Rockingham hosts a number of race and rally events throughout the year and for those wanting to experience the speed for themselves gift days and corporate hospitality make for unforgettable memories. Drive Ferraris, V8 supercars, Aston Martin, rally cars and even a genuine Formula 1™ car, or learn driving skills for road safety on the wet grip area with our DriveSafe course.
