Grey cloud sits low over the Jersey racing game, a marina circuit that circles the island in 4.3 km. It's a race track shaped like Jersey, beginning at Millbrook on the south coast, running west through Belcroute Bay and St Brelade to La Pulente, along the north by Grand Becquet, Ronez Point and Belle Hougue Point, then down the east side past La Coupe Point, Saint Catherine Bay and Anne Port to Plat Roque Point.

Around the Jersey track

Mont Orgueil Castle sits above the harbour, a stone fortress over the water. A lighthouse marks the rocky coast and an old German bunker hunkers down beside the track. Terraced houses line the waterfront, cars are parked along the barriers, and the crowd waves flags beneath an overcast sky. The banner says Welcome to Jersey, and the boards read Saint Helier.

How to drive the Jersey circuit

The 670-metre main straight finishes at Millbrook, turn 1. La Pulente, turn 4 on the west coast, is the slowest corner at 76 km/h, so the hardest stop comes early. The rest of the lap rolls over small rises around the coast, with corners coming steadily all the way round.
