by Michal Kašpárek on June 16, 2009

Thanks to its 73.75 m elevation change, Automotodrom Brno (also known as Masaryk Circuit) is one of the most challenging tracks in Europe.

Racing circuit Automotodrom Brno is going to host one of the most interesting racing events – Fia World Touring Car Championship race. From Friday to Sunday, you can see several former F1 drivers competing, including Gabriele Tarquini, Tiago Monteiro, Nicola Larini and the legendary Alessandro Zanardi.

There’ll be also races of series “Porsche Cayman”, “FIA Formula Two”, “SEAT Eurocup”, “Formula Master” and “Abarth”. Check the complete timetable and information on transportation at the website of Automotodrom Brno (thumbs up for an expat-friendly site).

Tickets will be sold at the main entrance of Automotodrom Brno since Friday. Sunday entrance is €11, weekend tickets cost €15. There’s a free entrance on Friday.
