About Circuito de Jerez Ángel Nieto
Circuito de Jerez – Ángel Nieto is a 4.428 km, 13-corner motor racing circuit just outside Jerez de la Frontera in Andalusia, southern Spain — the traditional opening round of the European MotoGP season. Construction was completed in late 1985 and the circuit hosted its first race (a round of the Spanish Touring Car Championship) in December 1985, followed by its first Spanish Formula One Grand Prix in April 1986. Jerez hosted the F1 Spanish Grand Prix and European Grand Prix on and off until 1997 — most famously the 1997 European GP, where Jacques Villeneuve clinched the World Championship after Michael Schumacher attempted to drive him off the road at the Dry Sack corner. In May 2018 the circuit was formally renamed in honour of 13-time motorcycle world champion Ángel Nieto, who had died in 2017. On 3 May 2019 the sixth corner — historically the Curva Dry Sac — was renamed Curva Pedrosa in honour of three-time world champion and Jerez specialist Dani Pedrosa, and the final right-hander before the start/finish straight is named Curva Jorge Lorenzo. The circuit features a balanced mix of slow, medium and high-speed corners — Curva Sito Pons (T1), Curva Michelin (T2), Curva Expo'92 (T5), Curva Pedrosa (T6), Curva Ducados (T7), Curva Peluqui (T11), Curva Jorge Lorenzo (T13) — that have made Jerez one of the most popular test and trackday venues in Europe. It also hosts the Spanish round of the Superbike World Championship.
