Circuit Info
Another UK circuit set in pastoral
parkland surroundings, Oulton Park, like Cadwell and
Brands, has a special ambience that only a British track
could possibly generate.
Oulton's character is generated by its
peaks and crests and challenging layout. Indeed it is
probably one of the trickier UK circuits to learn but a
rewarding one to get right. Most of the corners are
followed by a good long straight so it is important to
get them right and so carry your speed. The Knickerbrook
chicane has slowed things down a bit but this is still a
circuit of high average speeds.
Magic moment
Has to be the run from Lodge Corner
onto the start/finish straight and the deceptively quick
right-hander Old Hall before plunging downhill to
Cascades. |
