About: The state-of-the-art circuit, Sepang International Circuit was officially opened on March 9, 1999 having been completed in a record 14 months and with the recognition of its ultramodern facilities, it was given the honour to incorporate the F1 logo in its name. Situated 85km from the Kuala Lumpur city centre it is ideally situated for world-class international events. With a length of 5.543 km, the track features 15 turns and 8 straights with access speeds of more than 300kph. Designed with thrill-seekers in mind there are ample opportunities for overtaking, ensuring action-packed races full of suspense. In all, SIC can accommodate up to 130,000. The Main Grandstands and 18 air-conditioned Corporate Suites have a capacity of 32,000. The 1.3km long double frontage main grandstand presents a view of the circuit’s longest straight and was purposely constructed for comfort along the east-west alignment, to ensure shade from the sun’s glare at all times.
