Aintree

Aintree Motor Racing Circuit is a 3.000 mi (4.828 km) motor-racing circuit in the village of Aintree, Metropolitan Borough of Sefton, Merseyside, England. The circuit is within the Aintree Racecourse, and used the same grandstands as horse racing. It was built in 1954 as the "Goodwood of the North", because the two venues had so many things in common. The track was well-surfaced and relatively flat, ranging from 49 to 98 ft in elevation.
