This would be good news for those of you who are planning to go for next year’s edition of the Petronas Malaysian Formula 1 Grand Prix. The organizers of the race SIC (Sepang International Circuit) has decided to extend its ‘early bird’ promotion and this will continue to run until the end of January next year. The race is scheduled to take place at the Sepang circuit on April 8 to April 10, 2011.
Datuk Razlan Razali, the chief executive officer of SIC said that in promoting motor sports among Malaysians, they are offering a 50% discount for early birds who purchased their tickets before December 31 but due to popular demand, they are extending the promotion to another month so that Malaysians and fans of the sport could attend the race in Sepang at half the price. Next season will be an interesting year as there could possibly be 2 Lotus teams participating.
At the moment, the Mercedes team is sponsored by Petronas driven by 7 time world champion Michael Schumacher while national car maker will be participating through its recent acquisition of the Renault F1 team now racing as Lotus Renault F1 while the 1Malaysia F1 team under the leadership of Datuk Seri Tony Fernandes is intending to race under Team Lotus although the name has yet to be confirmed, pending the current conflict.
