It would be amazing to have, but as many of you can probably tell, it would not be an ideal place to host actual races due to it being a figure-of-8 track. The fastest lap time from a car that fits Top Gear’s rules of a road car was the Ferrari SF90 Stradale which went round in 1:11.3, whilst the fastest ever time set in any car was by Heikki Kovalainen in the 2004 Renault F1 car which did it in 59 seconds. It has even been in a few racing games, namely Gran Turismo 5 and every Forza Motorsport game from 4 to 7. The track was designed by Lotus on an old airfield to test cars in all kinds of corners, and became an iconic mainstay in households across not only the UK but pretty much the entire world. Top Gear Test TrackFrom 2002 to 2020, BBC’s Top Gear would do their tests, power laps by The Stig and celebrities would do laps around the Dunsfold Aerodrome. But what could? Here are our best guesses, from least to most likely. We will not dedicate a section explaining the UK’s geography, but it is worth mentioning so tracks like Anglesey in Wales probably will not count. It is also worth mentioning Knockhill but, of course, that is in Scotland and not England. Oulton Park has been enjoyed across many series by pretty much all road racing members due to being base game content, and Snetterton is also about to become free as of next season. These include the widely known ones that host international competition like Silverstone, Donington and Brands Hatch of course. England has many amazing tracks, plenty of which are already in iRacing. Make sure you do not go to Buckingham Palace for tea and crumpets during your trip to England, you will be turned away, guys!
