02Overview
What Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes is like to drive.
The full circuit layout at Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes is 1.63 miles with 12 corners worth setting up for. A generic track-day car in our model brakes hard 10 times a lap and is at full throttle for about 26% of the distance; the longest straight runs roughly 738 ft.
5 of the corners are slow (under 50 mph in the model), 1 are fast (over 75 mph). There are hairpins where exit speed matters more than entry. The corner notes below come from the mapped geometry, not from local knowledge; we’ll add a researched guide for Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes later.

The speed trace is a model, not a real lap: a generic track-day car (about 1.1 g of cornering grip, 1 g braking, 150 W/kg) driven on the computed line through an assumed 12 m wide track. Use it to see where the braking zones and flat-out sections are, not to predict your speeds. Elevation data for this track isn’t loaded yet.
04Corner by corner
The corners at Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes.
TRACK’s own corner numbering (C1, C2…), found from the curvature of the mapped centerline. It isn’t the official turn numbering. Each diagram shows the computed line: the minimum-curvature path through an assumed 12 m wide track. It’s a geometric starting point. Your instructor’s line comes first.

Medium right-hander
↱ RightmediumchicaneTRACK numbering
A medium right-hand chicane that turns about 113°, tightening to a radius of roughly 11 m (36 ft). The model car brakes for about 125 m (410 ft), from 107 to 50 mph. The computed line turns in from the left side, takes a late apex, about 40 m after the corner’s geometric apex, and lets the car run out to the left on exit.

05Configurations
Every mapped loop at Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes.
TRACK finds each closed loop in the OpenStreetMap raceway network. Named layouts come from OSM circuit relations; the rest are named by length, and some may be combinations the venue never runs. Your first session confirms which one you drove.

FAQ
Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes, answered.
How long is Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes?
OpenStreetMap maps 6 closed loops at Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes, from 1.38 mi to 1.63 mi (2.63 km). These are mapped centerline lengths; the venue’s published figures can differ slightly.
Which direction does Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes run?
OpenStreetMap doesn’t record a direction for the main layout at Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes. Venues sometimes run both ways. TRACK takes the direction from your first laps.
Can I time laps at Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes with my phone?
Yes, with the TRACK iPhone app (beta). It recognises Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes and the layout you’re driving from GPS, then times laps and sectors. A phone’s GPS is good for lap times; an external 10–25 Hz receiver tightens sector splits.
Where is the start/finish line at Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes?
The line TRACK uses comes from a start/finish point placed in OpenStreetMap. It isn’t verified on site, so the app asks you to confirm or move it before timing your first session here.
How do I find track days at Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes?
Clubs and organizers list HPDE, track days and club races on MotorsportReg. The venue’s own calendar lists its events too. TRACK doesn’t list events itself.
Where can I stay near Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes?
This page lists hotels, campgrounds, restaurants, fuel and parts stores near Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes from OpenStreetMap, with straight-line distances. Book early for big event weekends.
