Malaysian motorcycle Grand Prix Overview

Malaysian MotoGP

Malaysian MotoGP

The Malaysian motorcycle Grand Prix is a motorcycling event that is part of the Grand Prix motorcycle racing season. It is held at the Sepang International Circuit. The circuit was designed by renowned German designer Hermann Tilke.

Specifically built for speed and exciting racing, the Sepang International Circuit in Malaysia is one of the world’s best. Sepang circuit boasts superb pit garage and media facilities, as well as impressive grandstands and patron amenities. The 2.300 acre complex which also houses a hotel, shopping center golf course and other sports facilities cost around 50m to construct and was built in just 14 months, holding its first Grand Prix in April 1999 and setting the standard for race circuits worldwide.

The main circuit, normally raced in a clockwise direction, is 5.54 kilometers long, and is noted for its sweeping corners and wide straights. The layout is quite unusual, with a very long back straight separated from the pit straight by just one very tight hairpin. The longest lap in MotoGP is made all the more gruelling for riders by intense heat and humidity. Sepang is located around 50km south of Kuala Lumpur city.
