The competition length of the track is 1615 meters, with a maximum gradient of 18% and 16 curves --including a 360-degree turn.

The Sliding Centre has a seating capacity of 2,000 and a standing capacity of 8,000.

Referred to as "The Dragon's tail," curves 12 and 13 feature particularly sharp turns and elevation gain.
