Right-handed with three tight bends, the chase course is around the inner and poses a few tricky obstacles as you run down into them, especially down the back straight where accurate jumps on the chase course are crucial.

Ground can get testing in winter, and there are a variety of opinions about the best routes to take to remedy this.
