List of motor racing venues by capacity

The following is a list of motor racing venues, ordered by capacity; i.e. the maximum number of spectators they can accommodate. Due to the length of motor racing courses, and the fact that the cars pass each point frequently, it is often not possible to see the entire track from any one seat. This makes it possible to seat larger numbers of people, and differentiates a race-track from other stadiums, in which the entire field of play usually is visible from every seat. Some race-tracks also contain sitting or standing areas in the form of grassy banks. Currently all venues with a standard capacity of 35,000 or more are included.

Notes

1. The Motegi complex has actual seating capacity for up to 100,000 for road races and 80,000 for oval races. However, the track operators have chosen to restrict ticket sales because the area's transport infrastructure cannot handle a full-capacity crowd.^{[citation needed]}
