About Alastaro Circuit
The Medium Circuit configuration is one of 4 layouts available at Alastaro Circuit - 2.721 km across 11 corners. Lap times and sessions on this layout are tracked separately from other configurations.
Overview
Alastaro Circuit is a motorsport centre in the village of Virttaa, in the town of Loimaa in south-western Finland. It takes its name from Alastaro, a former municipality that merged into Loimaa in 2009, and it lies along national road 41 between Turku and Nokia, about 65 km from Turku, 95 km from Tampere, 90 km from Pori and 160 km from Helsinki. The venue is open all year and is run by Resykli Oy. Beside the asphalt circuit it has a drag strip, a folkrace track, an electric kart track and an off-road track, and it hosts national championship racing, motorcycle road racing, drag racing, drifting, endurance events, driving experiences and track days.
Technical Specifications and Track Features
For most of its life the circuit ran on configurations of roughly three kilometres; the motorcycle layout, in use since 1996, measures 2.85 km. In 2023 a major extension added well over a kilometre of new asphalt, creating a long full circuit that can still be split into separate sections run at the same time. The track averages about 12 m in width, with wide run-off areas designed with heavy-vehicle testing in mind. On the older circuit the car lap record is 1:11.437, set by Andrea Belicchi in a Dallara F399 Formula 3 car in 2003. On the extended layout Matias Salonen set 1:50.287 in a Porsche GT3 on 2 September 2023, and Eemeli Lahti holds the motorcycle record of 1:49.234 on a Yamaha R1 from 28 July 2024. The site lies in a class 1 groundwater area, which brings strict environmental rules, and vehicles may run until 20:00.
Facilities and Specialized Areas
A pit building completed in 2026 has garages of 60 square metres, larger rental units of up to 240 square metres, and a two-storey block of about 200 square metres for VIP guests, training and meetings. The paddock is sized for about 300 crews, and there is parking for thousands of cars. The kart track, paved in 2024, is about 400 m long and 5 m wide with eight corners, and it is used by a fleet of electric karts. A motocross track of nearly three kilometres, once closed, was reopened for electric motorcycles. The site also offers driving experiences in Porsche, Formula 4 and Radical cars, accommodation, and a ridge with hiking and ski trails next to the track.
History
The circuit grew out of a project started in the 1980s by Robert Lappalainen and opened in 1990. Its original layout was used until 1995, and new configurations were introduced in 1996. In 1999 the track was sold at a forced auction to a private owner, and Tero Tupala has owned it since 2007. Alastaro hosted the European Truck Racing Championship in 1999-2002 and 2004, the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship in 2017 and the SMP F4 Championship in 2015 and 2018-2019. In late 2022 the plan to lengthen the asphalt track was announced, and the extended circuit was in use by 2023. The circuit hosts Finnish championship car racing, Finnish road racing, European and Finnish drag racing, the NEZ Racing Championship, Historic Race Finland, drifting, endurance and truck racing.
