Circuit de Charade, also known as Circuit Louis Rosier, is a motorsport track near Clermont-Ferrand in Auvergne, France, built around an extinct volcano. Designed by Jean Auchatraire and Louis Rosier using existing roads, it opened in 1958 with an 8.055km layout marked by relentless curves and elevation changes and almost no straights.
