Track of The Month – June 2024
Okayama, Japan
For June, we visit the Chugoku region of Japan, home to Okayama International Circuit which is our Hotlapping Track of the Month!
Spanning a length of 2.301 miles (3.703 km) with 11 turns, the Okayama Circuit offers a unique and technical experience.
Originally built in 1990 as the TI Circuit Aida, it underwent various modifications before being renamed the Okayama International Circuit in 2005. This track has hosted a variety of motorsport events including Super GT, Super Formula, and even MotoGP in the past.
The circuit’s layout presents a mix of long straights and technical corners, which are particulary notable through the middle and final sectors, providing a test of precision and finesse from drivers.
While not as well-known as some other tracks, the Okayama International Circuit still holds significance in the world of motorsport, and is guaranteed to provide an exciting battle for top spots on this months leaderboard!
