Oulton Park International Circuit
Oulton Park International Circuit is 4.3 km, 17 turns, clockwise.
Oulton Park's International Circuit represents the venue's longest and most demanding configuration, stretching 2.692 miles (4.332 km) through 17 corners across Cheshire's rolling parkland countryside.
The 2.692-mile lap creates different strategic considerations compared to shorter variants, with tire degradation and fuel consumption becoming factors during longer race distances.
Oulton Park Island

The Island Circuit at Oulton Park delivers 2.263 miles through 14 corners utilizing the facility's lakeside section without the extended International Circuit portions.
The Island layout serves as Oulton's primary configuration for club racing, track days, and regional championships where the compressed distance creates closer racing and higher session density.
What distinguishes the Island Circuit from Oulton's International layout is the omission of certain extended sections that allows faster lap frequency and tighter competition, with the 2.263-mile distance creating lap times approximately 20 seconds quicker than the full International configuration.
