Rustavi, the roaring
heart of Georgia
Georgia has quite some
tradition in motor
racing, dating back
from the Soviet Union
times. Today, as the
country has recovered
political stability,
motorsport is very
popular among young
generations, together
with the national
sports: wrestling, rugby,
swimming and football.
The country has one
FIA grade-2 track,
Rustavi International
Motorpark, located 20
km South East of the
capital Tbilisi. This
modern venue was
completely re-built in
2012 on the site of the
old Rustavi. The longest
of the three possible
layouts is 4140 meters,
and offers a very
interesting and
technical combination
of slow and fast
sections. A perfect
location for a TCR
event? Let’s wait and
see!
