Of which 300 meters (over 5km) or so are pure climbing compared to the rest where momentum and false flats save you a lot of energy. And you’ll need the energy cause a short but demanding 17% peak wall hits you just before the end of said climb and each lap will become harder. ^^
As a (conscious) speedfreak, it’s my favorite race track. Did it on foot, with my Fiesta and, last year, on my road bike for the first time at the Leisure ride before the 24 hour Rad Am Ring race. Already got my ticket for this year’s event and planning more visits.
I guess Renault didn’t want to keep Doohan. Well allow me to be the first to say: Fuck you back, Flavio. You should’ve never returned.
