The route for a proposed Formula 1 race on the streets of Denmark's capital, Copenhagen, has been revealed, as the project gathers pace for a potential 2020 debut.
As reported last week, a Danish group led by businessman Lars Seier Christensen have already met with Liberty Media to discuss the plans, with the meeting described as "very positive".
Now plans for the circuit have been released, which will see cars pass the Christiansborg Palace – home of the Danish parliament – and pass over two harbour bridges, one of which will allow cars to reach speeds in excess of 300 km/h.
The circuit length totals 4.5 km, and whilst it isn't the final design, it isn't expected to change much if the project gets the final go ahead. Famous F1 circuit designer Hermann Tilke has also reviewed the plans and visited the city to look at the proposed route.
"The track we have submitted to Formula One in London is not with complete certainty the final version, but it is the basis, and if there are any changes they will be minimal," former MP Helge Sander, who is also involved in the project, told Jyllands-Posten.
"The track has been approved by Hermann Tilke who also had questions and ideas for adjustments. But that is something we will look at on an ongoing basis."
