Track Info
Snetterton Circuit - Norfolk, England, UK
Ex-RAF airfield turned national powerhouse - clockwise - three modern layouts (300, 200, 100) with long straights, technical infield and classic fast sweepers like Bomb Hole and Coram
When was the track built?
RAF Snetterton Heath opened in 1943 for the USAAF's 96th Bomb Group. After decommissioning, local enthusiasts Oliver Sear and Dudley Coram secured use of the perimeter roads in 1951. Under MSV, a major 2011 rebuild created today's three-layout complex with improved viewing banks and safety - while preserving the airfield DNA of long blasts and heavy stops.
When was its first race?
The venue's first race meeting was on 27 October 1951 - AMOC-organized "speed trials" sprint races. Motorcycle racing began in 1953, with full car race meetings the following year as Snetterton became a staple of British club and national calendars.
What's the circuit like?
- 300 layout - complete test: A technical infield from Riches to Williams feeds the long Bentley Straight into the Brundle-Nelson braking-while-turning complex, before the signature dip at Bomb Hole and the never-ending right of Coram into Murrays.
- 200 layout - classic airfield vibe: Closest to the pre-2011 course with reworked Wilson hairpin and Murrays for better overtaking - ideal for BTCC and high-speed club racing.
- Corner heritage: Turn names celebrate figures tied to Snetterton - Riches and Coram from the early days - plus modern tributes like Agostini, Hamilton, Williams and the Wilson hairpin (renamed from Montreal in 2016).
- Benchmark pace: F3 race-lap 1:39.933 frames the single-seater ceiling on the 300 - see series list below for GT3 and BSB references.

Why go?
Snetterton serves up proper speed and visibility. From BTCC elbows-out fights to British GT slipstreaming and BSB bravery through Bomb Hole and Coram, it's a fan-friendly bowl with big banks, long green-flag runs and multiple heavy-brake passes.
Where's the best place to watch?
- Tyrrells Stand: Views across the infield from Palmer to Agostini - watch traction battles and set-up differences through Hamilton.
- Oliver Sear Stand: End of Bentley Straight for big moves into Brundle-Nelson - classic out-braking zone.
- Jim Russell Stand - Murrays: Starts, pit work and last-lap lunges into the final corner with the dash to the flag in front of you.
- Bomb Hole banking: Feel the compression and commitment before Coram - brilliant for bikes and GTs alike.
Not just one series - headline events at Snetterton
BTCC: Annual summer stop with three sprint races on the 300 or 200 - strategy and safety cars keep everything tight.
BSB: One of the calendar's fastest venues - drafting along Bentley Straight and commitment at Bomb Hole decide the races.
British GT & Porsche Carrera Cup GB: GT3 and 992 Cup cars showcase aero-braking into Brundle-Nelson and patience through Coram.
GB3, GB4, British F4: Junior single-seaters put on superb multi-car dices through Wilson, Agostini and into the Esses.
