Top 7 Abandoned Race Tracks you can visit Legally

In this video I show you 7 abandoned race tracks you can visit legally. We start at the old Opel Test Track (Opel-Rennbahn) near Rüsselsheim in Germany. An unknown abandoned circuit in Germany is the Motodrom Gelsenkirchen, also known as Almaring.

The most controversial reconstruction of a race circuit is the demolishing of old Hockenheim. I show you what's left of the fast section through the woods.

Our forth stop is on the forgotten art of the old Nürburgring, well known for its iconic Nordschleife (North Loop). But did you know there was also a Südschleife (South Loop)?

We move to France and visit one of the most famous circuit ruins in the world. The old Reims-Gueux circuit. Here we fly with a drone over the old buildings.

One of the most iconic race tracks is Autodrome Nazionale di Monza, home of the Italian Grand Prix since 1922. Most famous for it's old high banked oval. It's no longer in use, but it's still there and can be visited! I also show you the abandoned Pirelli Circuit on the infield of Monza.

We end with a visit to the mother of all circuits, Brooklands. Brooklands was the first purpose built race circuit in the world. Unfortunately, parts of the famous high banked section are demolished.

The remains of this historic race track are now a monument. I show you the parts you can enter legally, or can be seen from the public road.
