The circuit
Kyalami, high on the Highveld between Johannesburg and Pretoria, is South Africa's great racing circuit: fast, undulating and steeped in history as the home of the South African Grand Prix through the Prost and Senna eras. Today it hosts the Kyalami 9 Hour GT endurance classic, and the huge hotel scene of Johannesburg puts fans a short drive from the track.
More endurance classics: Daytona, Imola, Mount Panorama, Le Mans.
