Squeaky boy😭🙏
The Autòdrom de Sitges-Terramar is a crumbling, 100-year-old concrete relic that features banking so steep it makes Daytona look like a flat parking lot.
While Jeremy Clarkson famously claimed the incline was 78 degrees, the actual 60-degree slope remains terrifyingly vertical and lacks any safety barriers to catch a car flying off the top.
Richard Hammond’s visible anxiety stemmed from the track’s dilapidated, pothole-ridden surface, which threatened to bounce his car straight into the abyss at the high speeds required to stay glued to the wall.
This “Spanish Brooklands” stands as a haunting reminder of an era where racing drivers relied more on bravery and physics than modern safety standards.
Given his history of narrow escapes, would you have trusted the structural integrity of that century-old concrete enough to floor it?
