The American Le Mans Series (ALMS) has announced that its 2013 season will include a race at the Circuit of The Americas (COTA) in Austin, Texas. The event will take place sometime in spring with more details to be announced later this year. Located less than 24km from Austin’s CBD, the 5.47km track will lead by example in sustainability through high-performance operations, design, research, education and partnerships, track developers say."The addition of Circuit of The Americas to our schedule will be very well-received by our fans and stakeholders alike. We know we have a lot of ALMS fans in Texas, and for our teams, manufacturers and sponsors, Austin and the surrounding region represent an important new business market," says a delighted ALMS President and CEO Scott Atherton.
COTA's configuration includes 20 turns and a 40.5 meter (133-feet) elevation change as cars travel anti-clockwise. The $400 million facility will accommodate up to 120,000 fans and will be one of only 26 Grade 1-certified motorsports facilities in the world.
COTA will also include a visitor’s center featuring outdoor live music space, a museum and a conference/media center. Also in the vicinity is a large medical center offering paramedic services, and EMS and medical student training. The American Le Mans Series is the only series to comply with the Green Racing protocols put forward by several U.S. agencies comprising U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and SAE International (SAE).
