Every great racetrack has a story. We’re going to drive it.

Jen Jensen and Randy Pobst visit the circuits that made racing history.

The show

Track Tours is a road trip through the world’s great racetracks. Each episode takes you to one circuit: how it came to be, the races that made its name, the corners drivers still talk about, and the people who keep it running.

Randy drives the line and shows you what the track asks of a car. Jennifer tells the track’s story and sits down with the people who live by it.
