Main Building

The building contains facilities for the Driving Experience and for a Porsche internal Training Centre. A big cantilevering roof and a tower at the northern end define the rectangular building. The overhanging elements cover a pit lane area for the racetrack, while the tower contains an elegant lounge with a splendid view onto the race area. A central foyer with full glazed fa?ade is used to display cars and for events. The main building also contains a Porsche Café, a boutique shop, meeting rooms, Club Lounge, cinema and Parc Ferme for delivery service.
The Experience Field
The experience field contains a big handling circuit which simulates race situations on a length of 1.3 km, including a long straight track for high speed as well as challenging turns. A pit lane is situated at the main building, which serves as starting point for the drivers. In addition of this are training zones with kick plate area, brake and slalom courses, low friction circle and off-road areas.
