This is York corner, a very sharp hairpin bend coming from left to right. It is the slowest section on the famous North West 200 motorcycle course. Preparations are already under way for this year's race, notice the temporary "keep left" signs and flags on the lamp posts (although orange in colour they have no political significance and are the advertising sign of the main sponsor).
