PÉCS
Description A domestic Formula Junior and Formula 3 race was held was held on a temporary street circuit on June 14th 1964 and an international Formula Junior and Formula 3 race on September 6th 1964.

According to the description, starting grid reached from the restaurant Olimpia (marked on the original drawing, as Olympia Fitness on Google Map today) to Ybl Miklós utca, so the start/finish line must’ve been somewhere around the Türr István u. intersection in the South-West part of the track. The overbridge in the South-East corner of the track on the satellite picture didn’t exist at that time; there was a level crossing back then (so my map could be approximated).

In the international event Formula 3 cars raced 25 laps, Formula Junior cars raced 15 laps.

Due to technical problems, temporarily it’s no longer possible to see the circuits on Google Maps embedded in the current page.
This feature will be restored as soon as I figure out how to do (any help would be appreciated!)

(Map shown here above can show at the same time all eventual layouts drawn. If you want to see only some of them, please go to Google Maps or Google Earth, by clicking on its own link)
