Round 3: Hampton Downs 26-27 Jan 2019

Sweeping elevations in the heart of the Waikato - Hampton Downs Motorsport Park, Hampton Downs

Hampton Downs is the circuit that takes New Zealand motorsport into the 21st century and has been designed to meet the very latest FIA circuit safety standards. The contoured circuit with its banked corners introduces an entirely different dimension and offers spectacular viewing opportunities.

“The elevation, the wide corners with lots of passing opportunities and the smooth surface; they all work together and in a modern single seater, the racing will be very good.” - Daniel Gaunt, TRS Champion, Dec 2009.
