14 of 14 routes
Amalfi Coast (SS163)
Cliff-edge SS163 between Sorrento and Salerno. Punishing in summer (full of buses). Magic at dawn in spring with the windows down. Wide cars suffer.
Best in October – April (avoid summer)
Atlanterhavsvegen
Eight bridges across an archipelago, including the Storseisundet 'drunk bridge' that looks like it ramps to nowhere. Best at golden hour with a low-slung coupe.
Best in May – September (avoid storm season)
Bealach na Bà (Applecross)
Single-track road on the Scottish North Coast 500. 20% gradients, blind hairpins, sheep. Reaches 626m via a series of tight corners. Spectacular descent to the village.
Best in May – September
Col du Galibier (D902)
Pair with the Col du Lautaret and Col du Télégraphe for a Tour de France triple. Tight, technical, brutal at altitude. Wide-open visibility above the treeline.
Best in June – October
Furka Pass (B19)
Bond's Aston Martin DB5 was filmed here. Glacier views, narrow tarmac, brutal hairpin sequences. Pair with Grimsel and Susten for a triple-pass loop.
Best in June – October
Großglockner Hochalpenstraße
Toll road (€39 for cars). Smoother surface than most Alpine passes — perfect for a 911 GT3 or GT4. Fuschertörl viewpoint at 2,428m.
Best in May – November
Klausen Pass
Quiet Swiss alternative to the Stelvio. Mountain-meadow upper sections, tight gorge descents. Café at Urnerboden midway.
Best in June – October
Picos de Europa N-625
Northern Spain's hidden gem. Limestone gorges, near-empty even in August. Combine with the AP-1 motorway return for a perfect day loop from Bilbao.
Best in May – October
Route Napoléon (N85)
Grenoble to Cannes following Napoléon's 1815 march. Climbs over the Maritime Alps, descends to the Med. Stretches of empty road south of Sisteron are spectacular.
Best in April – October
Schwarzwaldhochstraße (B500)
60 km of forest ridge road from Baden-Baden to Freudenstadt. Fast sweepers, decent visibility. Less dramatic than the Alps but accessible from anywhere in central Europe.
Best in April – October
Stelvio Pass (SS38)
75 hairpins on the Italian side, snow walls until July. The most photographed road in Europe and still one of the most fun. Avoid Sundays — tour buses ruin it.
Best in June – September
Transalpina (DN67C)
Higher and longer than the Transfăgărășan, less famous so even quieter. Climbs to 2,145m through near-deserted Carpathian valleys.
Best in July – September
Transfăgărășan (DN7C)
Built by Ceaușescu in the '70s as a strategic military road. Closed Nov–June. Long uninterrupted sweepers, glacial lakes, almost zero traffic on weekdays.
Best in July – October
Trollstigen
11 numbered hairpins climbing 858m. The descent is steeper than the climb. Combine with the Atlantic Road for a Norwegian fjord-and-mountain double bill.
Best in June – September (closed in winter)
Track days
12 of 12 featured · 35 circuits
Autodromo Nazionale Monza
The Temple of Speed. Italy's home of F1 rewards pure top-end power and exceptional braking. Minimal cornering complexity — it's all about the Lesmo chicanes and Parabolica.
Record here: 1:44.2 — Ferrari 488 GT3 Evo (Endurance record)
Brands Hatch
Natural amphitheatre dug into the Kent countryside. Paddock Hill Bend drops away dramatically on entry. Druids hairpin, the Craner Curves — every corner has character. Old-school British motorsport at its finest.
Record here: 1:24.8 — BMW M4 GT3
Circuit de Monaco
The jewel of Formula 1. Zero room for error — barriers millimetres from the racing line. Precision, feel, and braking finesse matter more than raw power.
Record here: 1:11.376 — Ferrari F1-75 (Charles Leclerc — Pole)
Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps
The greatest race track on earth for many drivers. Eau Rouge/Raidillon, Pouhon, Blanchimont — Spa tests everything. Long enough to expose mechanical weakness, technical enough to expose driving weakness.
Record here: 2:09.5 — Porsche 911 GT3 RS (road car)
Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta
Home of Petit Le Mans. The back straight is one of the fastest in North American motorsport. Turn 10a demands courage — a blind flat-out corner at 200+ km/h. Power and bravery rewarded.
Record here: 1:24.8 — Dodge Viper ACR
Nürburgring Nordschleife
The 'Green Hell' — 20+ km of relentless corners, blind crests, and elevation changes. Tests every dimension of a car's capability. No safety margin for mechanical weakness.
Record here: 6:40.33 — Porsche 911 GT2 RS MR
Sebring International Raceway
Built on a former WWII airfield — the bumps are legendary and the longest straight runs over concrete expansion joints. Cars and drivers must survive the brutality. Endurance and mechanical reliability are everything.
Record here: 1:47.4 — Porsche 963 (IMSA prototype)
Silverstone Circuit
Home of British motorsport and the British Grand Prix. Maggotts-Becketts-Chapel complex is the most demanding high-speed section in F1. Requires a fast, balanced car with strong aerodynamic grip.
Record here: 1:57.1 — Porsche 911 GT3 RS (road car)
Suzuka International Racing Course
The figure-of-eight layout is unlike anything else. 130R, Spoon Curve, the Esses — Suzuka rewards a perfectly balanced car and absolute mechanical sympathy. A driver's track in the purest sense.
Record here: 1:56.5 — Nissan GT-R Nismo (MY2020)
Tsukuba Circuit
Japan's most famous time-attack venue. Short and unforgiving — the entire lap is corners. Maximum lateral grip and precision braking define the fast cars here. A lightweight, neutral-handling car's paradise.
Record here: 55.4 — Nissan GT-R (R35 — time attack)
Watkins Glen International
One of America's most beloved road courses. Long sweeping corners reward aerodynamic stability. The Bus Stop chicane rewards precision braking. A balanced test of capability with old-school racing character.
Record here: 1:44.9 — Porsche 911 GT3 Cup (991.2)
WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca
Home of the legendary Corkscrew. A blind crest with a 5.5-degree drop into a double-apex corner demands absolute confidence. Rewards chassis balance and driver bravery over raw power.
Record here: 1:27.62 — Porsche 911 GT3 RS (991.2)
