Buddh International Circuit

Water colour on paper
10" x 14"

The Buddh International Circuit was built at Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India. Very close to the Capital of India, New Delhi, it hosted the FIRST ever Formula One Grand Prix on the 30th October 2011.
The event was a great success as people thronged to witness the first ever roar of a Formula One event in India. The governing body, the teams and most importantly the Drivers were all very impressed with the circuit as a whole. So much so that The Buddh International Circuit has been awarded the '2011 Motorsport Facility of the Year' award

Designed by Hermann Tilke, this circuit is owned by Jaypee Group. Track length is 5.137 kms and has 16 turns.

Sabastian Vettel, Red Bull Racing won the First ever Indian Grand Prix and was all praise to the circuit as well as the Indian culture.

Here I have tried to capture the atmosphere and the excitement at the Start of the race.
