Phoenix Park


Originally used in 1903, Phoenix park was used a 1 mile sprint and a 1 km flying sprint. The Phoenix statue in the middle of the track would have caused the larger cars to swerve around it (they were released in pairs), so the base either side was lifted up to create more space. The entire statue was moved by 1929!


This circuit was used between 1929 and 1939, originally for the Irish International Grand Prix. It was used once more in 1969. It was 4.25 miles/6.8 km long.
