Motorsports are very popular in France. France was the first country to hold a motorsport event and is regarded as the home of motor racing. It has numerous racing circuits, all organising professional and amateur race events that see thousands of racing fans flocking to France every year to witness some of the best motor racing in the world.
The French Grand Prix is a particularly popular event. It is the oldest Grand Prix race in the world and is currently held at the Circuit de Nevers Magny-Cours, although the future of the event is currently in doubt. Another important event in the French motorsport calendar is the 24 Hours of Le Mans, an endurance race and one of the world's most famous racing events. Le Mans also hosts the French motorcycle Grand Prix and the 24 Hours of Le Mans Moto, a motorcycle endurance race. Other popular motor racing events in France include the Grand Prix de Pau, Bol d'Or, FFSA GT Championship and the French Formula Three Championship.
France is a popular tourist destination and travelling fans will find a wealth of hotels, guesthouse, B&Bs and private apartments to choose from. There are many different ways to travel to France: by air, by train, by road, or by sea. The country's major international airports are located in Paris, but there are also regular international flights to Nice, Lyon and Toulouse. Trains are perhaps the most comfortable and affordable way to travel around France, although there is also a comprehensive bus and road network.
