Houston Reliant Park
Street CircuitUnited States
Houston, despite being the fourth largest city in the USA, has never been particularly well-served by motor racing circuits, so it's recent Champ Car and IndyCar events have been held on street courses. Between 1998 and 2001 the downtown area was used for a series of popular races (with the motorsport-starved fans at least) but redevelopments in the area rendered the course unusable thereafter. After a short hiatus, racing resumed, this time on a short 1.7-mile track winding through the parking lots of Reliant Stadium.
