Circuit de la Comunitat Valenciana Ricardo Tormo (shortened to simply Circuit de Valencia or, as it is now called, the Circuit Ricardo Tormo) is a racing circuit located near Valencia, Spain. The MotoGP Valencian Grand Prix has been held at this circuit since 1992. Formula One also raced the European Grand Prix in Valencia from 2008 until 2012, albeit it was on a street circuit and not on this track, but was used for testing in the past. A different layout of the track was used for testing for Formula E, and has hosted a back-to-back race weekend in 2021.
Circuit de Valencia was featured in the spinoff titles, Tourist Trophy and Gran Turismo PSP.
Trivia[]
- Although Gran Turismo 5 had this track, it was hidden and can't be accessed by normal means. A modification to the game would be needed to use this course after the Spec II update. It was a direct port from Gran Turismo PSP with no changes.
- Despite having a pit-lane, it is inaccessible. This is because in Tourist Trophy, pit-lanes were blocked out on all tracks. As pit-stops weren't implemented in Gran Turismo PSP, the track was left untouched in that game, aside from the removal of any visual mention of Tourist Trophy.
