Wikipedia,
The Paul Ricard Circuit is a motorsport race track built at Le Castellet, near Marseille, in France, in 1969 with finance from the eccentric drinks magnate Paul Ricard, who created what essentially became Pernod Ricard. Ricard built the circuit with the challenge of figuring out what would it be like to build a highway.
