宁波国际赛道

Ningbo International Circuit opened in October 2017 in Chunxiao, Beilun District, Ningbo, covering about 1,111 mu. Master-planned by international designer Alan Wilson, it holds an FIA Grade 2 licence and can stage all categories below Formula 1. The track runs 4.010 km with 22 corners and 24 m of elevation change, among the more undulating circuits in China and demanding on brakes and suspension setup. Supporting facilities include a test pad, off-road course, karting track and motorsport-themed retail, enabling touring car races, one-make series, motorcycle events, vehicle testing and brand experiences. The site lies in the Ningbo International Ocean Ecology and Technology City, close to the Xiangshan Port Bridge and the Ningbo-Taizhou-Wenzhou expressway. Ningbo is known for elevation and corner count: 24 m of gradient and 22 corners make it one of the more technical layouts in China, demanding brake, suspension and tyre management, which is why it is often used for chassis tuning and tyre testing. The coastal Chunxiao location brings noticeable weather and track-temperature variation, adding value to test data. Practically, Ningbo suits testing and training that need real-world load: continuous elevation change puts more stress on brakes and suspension than a flat circuit, so the data is more representative. Racing is mainly touring cars, one-make series and motorcycles, with a paddock sized for mid-scale events and brand buy-outs.
