The Beijing International Street Circuit was a clockwise street circuit located at the Shunyi Olympic Rowing-Canoeing Park, in Beijing, China.

History

To keep the success of Olympic Games, the Shunyi District decided to invest 300 million yuan to build facilities for motorsport.[1] The circuit opened in October 2010, when it hosted a non-championship round of the 2010 Superleague Formula season.[2]
