Stock company Automotodrom Brno, was founded in 1994 by two share holders: AMK – Masarykův okruh Brno company and Autoclub of the Czech Republic. Seat of the company is the Automotodrom in Brno.

With entry of a new major share holder Rafas Holding in 2001 we received new possibilities for further development and mainly secured connection on motorsports authorities. These changes brought new impulse for improving the quality of services and development of the Automotodrom Brno not only as a centre of motorsports and sports at all but as well as social life in the region.

Primary and dominant business activity of the company is still the motorsports racing circuit built in 1985-1987 which achieves all the security and technical standards of recent time. This circuit replaced the original city circuit dating back to thirties of last century.

The company constantly widened the portfolio of its activities. In recet time it takes care of the technical situation of the race track, developis building of new complexes and rebuilding of current buildings but also succesfully works in the field of promotion and marketing. Brno has its exclusive place in the calendars of both motorcycle and automobile world championships. The most important event being held every year is the race of the road racing world championship Grand Prix of the Czech Republic. In 1999 was the company awarded for the best organized GP with IRTA Trophy (International Road Racing Riders and Team Association) and constantly takes front positions in its ranking.

Great moment for Automotodrom Brno was September 2002 when one of the best Formula 1 drivers David Coulthard visited the circuit and tested wheather it is suitable for Formula 1 cars with his monopost of West Mc Laren Mercedes in seven testing rounds. The circuit proved to be suitable and with some necessary changes is by Mr. Coulthard judged as suitable for Formula 1 testing.
