And then there's the FIM approved tracks. Start with one that has been around for a long time ... Phillip Island, Australia.
Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit
And the one where World Superbike is racing this weekend, Algarve, Portimao, a track that was built with this in mind:
Autódromo Internacional do Algarve
Those are some mighty big gravel traps ...
And the newer tracks (like Portimao) have paved areas considerably wider than the track itself. There's the track, and then the kerbs (which everyone rides over), and then the green-painted areas that you can ride on but get a penalty for "exceeding track limits", and only beyond that is the gravel trap.
Our tracks look like just a strip of asphalt through the landscape ... which they pretty much are.
Jerez has that signature circular VIP lounge above the start-finish straight. Portimao also has a signature VIP building, which I knew was there, but not until looking up the track map did I realise that it is practically in the center of the whole facility so that you should be able to see the whole track from there.
