The island of Anglesey, located in the Irish Sea off the northern coast of Wales, in the United Kingdom, has a total population of 70,000 people and an MSA/ACU licensed motorsport facility, the Anglesey Circuit (in Welsh, Trac Môn). This facility hosts club events for the British Automobile Racing Club (BARC) and the British Racing and Sports Car Club (BRSCC). There are four possible configurations for racing at the Anglesey Circuit:  the 3.4-km (2.1-miles) International Circuit, the 2.5-km (1.55-miles) Coastal Circuit, the 1.9-km (1.2-miles) National Circuit, and the 1.28-km (0.8-mile) Club Circuit. The oceanic climate of Anglesey tends to be moderately cold year-round, having cloudy skies and light precipitations regularly.

The International Circuit in Anglesey is the longest and most technical raceway in this motorsports complex. It has 11 turns, a clockwise orientation, and several straightaways and sweeping curves that elevate its average speed to 125 km/h (78 mph). Three of the turns are close-angled right-handers, and four are tight left-handers. There are no dramatic elevation changes in the trajectory, but multiple overtaking spots like the Tom Pryce straight make races in Anglesey very interesting to watch. The Coastal Circuit deviates from the International Circuit after Seamans, taking the Corkscrew instead of the Tom Pryce straight and going directly into the Bus Stop.

High-performance vehicles can cover the 3.4-km (2.1-miles) of Anglesey's International Circuit in an average lap time of 1:37, with an average speed of 125 km/h (78 mph). This layout includes the straight segment named after Tom Pryce, the only Welsh Formula 1 driver to date, that ends in The Hairpin, where another twin straight runs parallel until the Bus Stop.
