Dijon-Prenois (Circuit)

The Circuit de Dijon-Prenois, a short but challenging track, hosted the French Grand Prix 6 times between 1974 and 1984. Its undulating layout, featuring fast sweeping corners and a dramatic elevation change, tested both car and driver. Notable for being the site of some of Formula 1's closest finishes, including the legendary battle between René Arnoux and Gilles Villeneuve in 1979, Dijon-Prenois carved out a unique place in Grand Prix history as a true drivers' circuit.
