Istanbul Park (Turkish: İstanbul Park), also known as the TOSFED İstanbul Park, is a motor sports race track in the Tuzla district of Istanbul, Turkey. Designed by Hermann Tilke, it opened on 19–21 August 2005. It has been called "the best race track in the world" by former Formula One Chief Executive Bernie Ecclestone, who held the managing rights of the circuit between 2007 and 2011. The circuit was then managed by the Turkish company Intercity since October 2012 to March 2024. After Intercity, the operator was firstly changed as Can Bilim Eğitim Kurumları A.Ş. in April 2024 for 30 years, however its tender rights was cancelled in December 2024 by the administrative court. On June 2025, it was announced that the operating rights of this circuit was given to Turkish Automobile Sports Federation for at least 10 years, and the name was changed as TOSFED İstanbul Park.
