1.9 km long and 9 m wide. Lots of run off and protection they say on the official site. (French only)

We were there last year.. it's quite a tight, twisty technical circuit apart from the long pit straight of course. I wouldn't go so far as to say there's loads of run off ! Protection I guess would mean armco about 6 feet from the edge of the circuit ?

Not the most friendliest of places if it all goes wrong, though the straight bits do have gravel traps for when you run out of brakes :)

looks very similar to Donington (but without the Craner Curves)

:D

It may look like it from a map but believe me it's nothing like it in reality.
