BAHRAIN FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX

Designed by the renowned consultancy Tilke & Partners, the Bahrain International Circuit is specifically designed for Formula 1 and world-class motorsport events. This purpose-built circuit was the first of its kind in the Middle East and arguably the most advanced in the world.

There are six potential track layouts within the complex consisting of an inner track for testing, club events, and an outer track for all classes of racing, incentive events, and heavy-duty testing. The F1 track itself consists of 14 main turns of different widths to provide varied racing lines. Over-taking was also taken into consideration with at least three hot-spots on the track.

The circuit was designed for the benefit of the spectator and boasts 50,000 grandstand seats with high quality views. Together, with the VIP viewing tower, hospitality suites, a media centre, merchandising areas, helicopter and light aircraft landing facilities, excellent road access and parking, it all adds up to a truly amazing and state-of-the-art Grand Prix experience.
