MALAYSIAN GRAND PRIX 2013:::::
Sepang International Circuit

Built in a stadium like manner, as part of plan to reboot Malaysia’s industrialization process in the 90’s, the circuit sits in a valley enabling one to see almost half the circuit at all times no matter where you sit. Malaysia’s Sepang International Circuit, inaugurated by its first F1 race back in 1999, is made of a combination of long high-speed straights and tight twisting complexes and hence stands out as one of the most technical and complicated F1 circuits.

- Track length 5,543km
- Amount of laps 56
- Race distance 310,408 km
- Number of turns 15
- Lap record time 1:34.223 – Juan-Pablo Montoya (2004)

Why the Malaysian Grand Prix?
Since 2001, the Malaysian Grand Prix has moved from the end of the championship schedule to the beginning. With many races heavily influenced by the winners and losers of the scramble for position into the tight double hairpin bend at the first corner, the overwhelming heat and humidity also play out as natural obstacles to the drivers and their cars, adding a pinch of spice to the competition. Thus it is a race that’s distinguishing the outstanding from the best drivers. Furthermore, Malaysia set in the heart of South East Asia gives you the opportunity to extend your trip to other countries in the region and Kuala Lumpur as a city has much to offer.
