Flins-Les Mureaux was a proposed motorsport race track, to be located in the Seine Valley between Flins-sur-Seine and Les Mureaux (to the northwest of Paris), as a future host for the French Grand Prix, to replace its former home at Magny-Cours.
The final Grand Prix on Magny-Cours was held in 2008, and the race's promoter FFSA was looking for an alternative host. There were six different proposals for a new circuit which included a street circuit located near Disneyland Resort Paris [1] [2], Versailles [3], Sarcelles [4], and finally a new track to build in Flins-Les Mureaux, near the Flins Renault Factory.
Work on the circuit was to be carried out by British company Apex Circuit Design, with plans submitted by a Parisian Architect to include a 1 km straight and seating for 120,000 people.[5] The 112 million euro project was said to have started work immediately, even though F1 Boss Bernie Ecclestone had not given the full green light for the track to host a Grand Prix in 2011.[6]
Plans for the development of the circuit to host Formula One were scrapped on 1 December 2009.[7]
