Shot just south of Paris, France in Linas at l'Autodrome de Linas --Montlhéry, this 1.58 mile oval track, built in 1924, features banks as steep as 51 degrees, which is more than double the standard incline of most NASCAR ovals. Chosen by Ken for this specific reason, the ramp-like banking proved to be a unique and exciting challenge. The driving physics for the stunts performed were totally unknown until Ken attempted the maneuvers during filming.
 
IIRC it's supposed to be one take..

Utter crap. The bit where he doughnuts around the green barrels has a cameraman inside rotating with him, in the next shot - no cameraman.

The wide angle shots from behind the car on the bank, next shot - no camera there.

Unless Ken Block has invented invisible cameras it was never one take!
