Magny Cours was a second rate run down track. The intervention of the French government saw substantial redevelopment of the track and re emrging as the Circuit de Nevers it hosted it's first GP in 1991. Magny Cours is not liked by the drivers, it has too many slow turns and hairpins. Many of the parts of the circuit are named after other race tracks.
The most exciting part of Magny Cours is the Adelaide hairpin.
Magny Cours suffers when compared to the excellent Circuit Paul Ricard.
