bridges, Puente Romano ("Roman Bridge", also known

as the Puente San Miguel), Puente Viejo("Old Bridge",

also known as the Puente Árabe or "Arab Bridge"),

and Puente Nuevo("New Bridge"), span the canyon and

offer spectacular views.

Nearby Discover traces of the old medina (Arab quarter) on the southern bank of the

Guadalevín River, cross the Puente Nuevo (New Bridge) and walk along tree-

lined Alameda del Tajo and the avenues bursting with vegetation, which lead

to a spectacular scenic overlook on the edge of the abyss. The Puente Nuevo

and Plaza de Toros de la Real Maestranza de Caballería de Ronda (the city's

bullring) have come to symbolize Ronda and are must-see sights. The

bullring, Plaza de Toros, is now a museum, and visitors can stroll out into the

arena. It is the second oldest bull fighting arena in Spain and was

immortalized by Ernest Hemingway in his novel Death in the Afternoon. After

visiting the Plaza de Toros, tourists can walk along the Calle Virgen de la Paz

to the Alameda de José Antonio. This beautiful 18th-century park has a broad

promenade, ideal for relaxing or taking a leisurely stroll. The park also offers

sensational views. Areas of the park sit on projecting spurs of Ronda's rocky

plateau with balconies for viewing.

The Puente Nuevo is an incredible piece of work 98 meters in height. It was

built using ashlar quarried at the bottom of the Tagus Gorge and designed to

allow the city to expand by connecting the old town with the modern

Mercadillo quarter. From the vantage point of this iconic bridge, the view of

the houses overhanging the precipice is spectacular.

Jerez Circuit

Circuito de Jerez is one of the most attractive tracks for both motorbikes and cars. Formula One

teams have had Jerez as their home testing circuit for many years, which backs up the quality of the

facilities.

For the motorbike riders Jerez is, together with Assen, the reference. Its 13 curves give plenty of

possibilities when tuning up the machines. Its 4.423m of length (4.428m with chicane) houses a

variety of low, medium and fast speed curves, technically ideal to work the mechanics in-depth, as

recognised by the top motor racing teams, who have made the circuit an international reference

point for testing along the year, particularly in the pre-season.

IMPORTANT NOTE: You must have valid health insurance to

participate in any driving activities on this track. Please read

the yellow note box on page 19 for more information.

Portimao Circuit

Portimao circuit was built from scratch in just six months and opened in 2008. From the moment

you turn in the main entrance you can’t fail to be impressed with this no compromise state of the art

motorsport facility. There are 32 different possible layouts at Portimao circuit, with lengths ranging from 3,465m, the shortest version, to 4,684m for the F1 version (the longest), making it suitable for hosting all types of automobile and motorcycling world championships at the highest level of competition. The different combinations of layouts allow users to choose between the faster, challenging versions or the twisty, more technical versions. Given the various layouts of the track, we consider the FIA Slow Fast (F1) version to be the standard version.

This circuit has a high-speed roller coaster style layout like no other. It is an amazing technical race

track with many elevation changes and blind crests with good opportunities to overtake because of the

circuit width. This circuit, much like the old school circuits, needs respect, but once you get the hang of

the blind crests and tricky cambers it’s somewhere you can really let yourself go.

Facilities Restaurant, there is a self service restaurant

open all day for drinks, snacks and buffet lunch

Garages are available to reserve for £300



Fuel, 98ron on site but you pay for it in advance

for the estimated amount of litres and you get a

Ascari Circuit

The Ascari circuit was opened in 2003, Ascari is the longest track in Spain, and “one of the

most spectacular in the world”. Ascari is located near Ronda (Malaga), in an area of

incomparable natural beauty. The design imperative was to take the existing rugged terrain

into account and has resulted in a track whose distinctive character is challenging and

appealing to the driver, yet whose presence has minimal negative impact on the

environment.

The racetrack is 5425 meters long and has 13 right-hander and 13 left-hander bends, some of

which have been upgraded with elevations (up to 18%). It is about 12 meters wide over its entire

length. The climbs and gradients are up to 12%. The track can be divided into three different

round courses with crossbars.

Facilities In House Catering for lunches and snacks.

Garages are available to reserve for £300

Additional Track Day Information

Mechanical Support Tyre changing facilities are available at all venues. We strongly recommend that you inform us if you

require any work during this trip. If you want your wheels swapping at the end of the day please ensure

you have arranged a time slot with our mechanics. We are also able to perform some mechanical tasks

including changing of brake pads and car fluids. Please note that we do not carry spares with us so you

will need to provide these. Again time slots will need to be arranged with our staff. All of the above

services are chargeable.

Garages Garages are available for reservation on each day for £300 per garage. If you would like to reserve a garage

please do this prior to the event. You can edit your booking to add one if needed. Platinum members have

shared use of a garage as part of their membership package.

Fuel Details of fuel provision are with the circuit information. This will be confirmed in our final instructions for

the event. Please note it may not be possible to purchase fuel on-site with a credit card. Therefore we

recommend you have Euro cash to pay for on-site fuel.

Tuition Professional Grade ‘A’ and ‘S’ ARDS instructors will be present at all track days. All our instructors travel from

the UK and know the circuits well. Instruction is recommended to all participants who have not been to the

venues before as it not only familiarises you with the circuit, but also offers you hints and tips to improve your

track driving. Instruction sessions are available from just £50 each and can be booked online to secure your

time slot and preferred instructor.

Food & Drink All three circuits have exclusive catering rights, meaning we are unable to provide catering ourselves,

however we will still be offering our usual complimentary hot and cold drink service as we would normally

on our European events.

IMPORTANT NOTE - Jerez Circuit - Proof of health Insurance The hospitals local to Jerez do not recognise the European Health Insurance Card as a valid payment

method for health care when participating in activities at the circuit. Therefore, we will obtain an

insurance policy to cover all guests and staff. You are more than welcome to use your own health

insurance and would recommend purchasing travel insurance for the trip.

BaT Professional Photography & Car Transportation

There will be a professional motorsport photographer in attendance taking pictures of all participants

from various points around the circuits. These will be available to view/buy on-site and via our website

when we return to the UK. Please remember to tape-up (or take off) your number plate if you don’t

want to be spotted at the circuit – as all images are uploaded to our website unedited.

BaT Car Transportation

For your convenience, we offer a car transportation service whereby your car is

taken fully insured by a covered car transporter from the UK to all three circuits

and finally back to the UK. Several trucks will be departing from Donington Park

Circuit, we therefore ask your car is here no later than close of day Tuesday 17th

September. If you intend to book ‘Bring my Car’, please note your car must be

dropped off at our workshop the week before the truck departs.

Exact pricing will depend on the size and weight of your car, as well as any

wheels/tyres and tools that need to be carried. The price for 2019 is £1995 for

covered transport or £1495 for open transport. Last booking will be 31st July

although sold on a first come first serve basis. This includes your luggage inside

the cockpit, and with a separate set of wheels & tyres.

European clients can have their cars transported too but the price is the same

as travelling from the UK.

Safety Briefing & Summary

Overtaking Rules Overtake on the straights only, not under braking and not round corners.

Overtake on the LEFT hand side only.

Overtake BY CONSENT ONLY. This means the car in front must have clearly indicated and pulled

over to the right before any overtaking manoeuvre can be made. If the car in front is not indicating,

assume they have not seen you.

Powerful cars are expected to lift off the throttle on the straights to allow the less powerful cars to

pass before the braking zone.

If these rules are obeyed, then car-to-car contact is impossible and the only element of danger is your

own driving.

Finally, remember to do a cool down lap each time before you return to the pits and

avoid using the hand brake when parked up.

General Notes No hand-held cameras are allowed. All cameras must be securely mounted.

Slick tyres are not permitted without adequate roll-over protection.

Please ensure you have your towing-eye fitted before venturing out on track.

All participants must have covered arms and legs when out on track.

All drivers must have a full road licence (race licence is not a valid substitute).

Strictly no timing.

No passengers under 16 years are allowed out on track or in the pit lane. Passengers between 16 and 18

years old must have a parent / guardian on-site at all times and they must counter sign their disclaimer.

Know Your Flags YELLOW - Used when a car, debris or other object is causing a hazard on the circuit

and in complete safety. Please slow down and be in complete control of the car.

RED - This is shown when the session must end due to a hazard that cannot be

removed quickly and safely. Please return to the pits very slowly.
