Charade

Having hosted the French Grand Prix in Formula One four times in 1965, 1969, 1970 and 1972, the Circuit de Charade near Clermont-Ferrand used to be quite an intimidating affair for drivers: In its original 8-kilometer configuration, the track was twisty, but fast, combined with big elevation changes and beautiful scenerey of the French countryside surrounding the track.

In 1989, the circuit was shortened due to safety concerns about the old layout. Now shortened to just shy of 4 kilometers, Charade still features its classic characteristics, but a safer environment including run-off areas - not that this would subtract from the old-school nature of the track, as grass and gravel dominate the surroundings.
Currently, the circuit hosts a number of classic events as well as the Grand Prix Camions truck race and smaller championships like the Ultimate Cup 208. Charade is one of the newest tracks in RaceRoom, having been released in late 2022 as part of the Drivers Pack.
