Welcome to Track Tuesday where you are asked to identify a (maybe) famous race or test track from just one closely-cropped aerial image. This week, it’s a little more complicated, as I want you to provide the venue location, the track name, AND the corner. Good luck!

I have no idea but let me guess England or Australia since it looks like the are driving the left hand side. My official guess is Isle of Man
I’m guessing Isle of Man Creg-ny-Baa corner. Mostly because I like the name Creg-ny-Baa.
I’m thinking it is just on the entry to Ballabeg, but I don’t know if that corner has a name.
Wait; Now I AM confused. The place I thought it was is down near Port Erin, so not on the ‘Mountain Circuit’ at all! Is there a different route going that far south?
Maybe you are thinking of Ballaugh Bridge where they catch air all the time.
Well that would make more sense; but that’s a straight, not a curve. It still doesn’t seem to be the small piece of some (British?) road course Robert has captured above.
Maybe we all just agree on Creg-ny-Baa? It certainly has a better name than the suggestions I’ve made so far…
Pretty sure you’re right about it being the entry to Ballabeg, the Google Maps image is identical.

looks close to Creg-ny-Baa, but not exactly what you see on the googletron’s satellite image.
