The Malaysian Grand Prix has been on the MotoGP™ calendar for more than 20 years now, since its debut at the Shah Alam circuit in 1991. The event was held there for 7 years before moving to its current home at the Sepang International Circuit in 1999. This circuit was designed by Hermann Tilke and is situated near Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia. With a spectacular layout and a rich history, the complex in which the circuit is located is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the city as it not only houses the circuit, but also a shopping centre, a hotel, golf course and other sports facilities. Apart from hosting prestigious motorsports events, the Sepang International Circuit is also known for developing its own talent and preserving motorsports´ history. The construction spanned over 14 months and today, the track runs over 5.5km with a total of 15 corners and 8 straights.
An exhilarating event that always has spectators on the edge of their seats, it is no wonder that the Malaysia MotoGP™ tickets are quick to sell out. Riders are geared for average speeds of up to more than 300km/h on a track that is wide enough for them to have multiple opportunities for overtakes, which means that you are in for a wild ride and guaranteed of suspense and thrill! There are many highlights to the circuit, but pay special attention to the four slow corners just after the speedy stretches as these are exceptionally challenging and are the ones that require the most skills. An adrenaline-charged event matched with superb riding skills means that any seat in the circuit is a good one, and there is a great variety of options for you to choose from.
