サーキット

Circuit Ricardo Tormo

バレンシア州政府が州都バレンシア市郊外のチェステに建設したサーキット、シルクイート・デ・ラ・コムニタ・バレンシアーナ・リカルド・トルモは、1999年9月のオープニングイベントとして世界選手権を開催すると、2002年からは毎年最終戦に指名。

チャンピオンシップで唯一のスタジアムスタイルのサーキットとして、観客席からは1周4005メートルのトラックを一望でき、毎年20万人を超えるファンが詰めかける。

サーキットの名称は、1998年に白血病が原因で他界した地元の英雄であり、1978年と1981年に『50ccクラス』でチャンピオンに輝いたリカルド・トルモの功績を称え、2017年に名称をサーキット・リカルド・トルモに改名。

2016年9月、バレンシア州政府とドルナスポーツとの間で、2017年から5年間の開催に関して合意し、2021年までの延長開催が決定。

2018年から毎年観客席を増加。2020年は、シーズン最終戦として11月15日に決勝レースを予定していたが、新型コロナウイルスの影響を受けて、11月8日に第13戦ヨーロッパGP、翌週の11月15日に第14戦バレンシアGPを開催。

23年連続の開催となる2021年は、シーズンの19戦目として11月14日に決勝レースを予定する。

The Gran Premio de la Comunitat Valenciana has been held every year at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo since the World Championship first visited the Spanish track in 1999, the same year the venue construction was completed.

Valencia, Spain

The stadium-style nature of the stands around the track means the whole of the circuit can be viewed by the fans as the annual MotoGP™ fiesta reaches a crescendo. There are corners at the circuit named after two great Spanish riders; Jorge Martinez Aspar and Angel Nieto. Both of them contributed significantly to the profile of Grand Prix motorcycle racing in Spain and around in the world.

Why we love Valencia


With a fine cultural and sporting heritage, Valencia is famed for fantastic fiestas, and this vibrant city is the third largest in Spain.

Given its excellent Mediterranean climate Valencia is a pleasant place to be. The huge Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències complex adds to the regeneration of the port and waterfront in recent years - the city having been the base for the 2007 America’s Cup.

Valencia’s historic city center is a marvel in itself, with districts such as the Barrio del Carmen providing great nightlife with its maze of winding streets, lined with trendy bars, cafés and restaurants. Fireworks are something of an art form in this city and spectacular explosions of color are not just limited to the annual celebration of the famous “Las Fallas” festival each March; though it is certainly when they are most numerous.

Outside the city the coastline along the Mediterranean in this part of Spain has been somewhat overdeveloepd, but away from the big resorts there is much to discover. Hilltop towns like Altea and Peñíscola situated amongst isolated and hidden coves, and vast areas of countryside made richer by the cirtus groves and the historic legacy of battles between Moors and Christians for control of the region.

Finding the right accommodation


There is plenty of accommodation near the circuit along the A3 motorway, which takes you Westwards away from the coast. Essentially the track is a short drive, or ride, outside the city towards the interior of Spain - close to the small town of Cheste.

The best spots to stay can get booked up fairly quickly, however there are literally thousands of options and this is a place well-accustomed to hosting large crowds for events and street parties.

Exploring Valencia


The city of Valencia has a bit of everything – fantastic parks and public spaces, beaches, museums, galleries, fine architecture, great food, friendly people and superb nightlife. Whilst Barcelona and Madrid may take the headlines, Valencia has its own intensity and story to tell.

One of the key features of the city is that the old town is partly bordered by a park which occupies what was previously a riverbed, reclaimed after flooding in the 1950s. This winding green space takes you from the Bioparc Valencia and Parque de Cabecera at one end of the city centre all the way down to the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia and the epic Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències, which features remarkable buildings such as L'Umbracle and L'Oceanogràfic.

Tips for visiting Valencia


Even if you do not speak Spanish or the Valencian language (which is distinctly different) at least having a go at a few phrases or demonstrating some knowledge of the local culture is bound to win you friends.

At the "Fallas" museum you will find "ninots" (larger than life figures usually based on real human characters) which were spared from the bonfires of the traditional festival, and can be enjoyed all year round.

A glass of freshly squeezed Valencia orange juice is a must whilst you are in the area, and the city is recognized nationally as the home of paella. Indeed, many restaurants offer an array of rice dishes in addition to traditional recipes, so why not experiment and try something new.

Lunch, "La Comida", is typically served between 2pm to 4pm, and many people do not eat evening meals until 10pm onwards, after an aperitif or two. As in other parts of Spain tipping is not always expected but it is polite to leave a couple of euros in a bar and around five percent of the total bill in rest
