Hello dear readers. My name is Fatin Nabila binti Abdul Aziz and I am from hm111 3b1. In this post, I will tell you some information about Sepang International Circuit (SIC) that I believe will amaze you. First and foremost, when we talk about Petronas Malaysia Grand Prix or Malaysian Motorcycle Grand Prix, the first thing will comes to our mind is Sepang International Circuit. This is because of the race track that is unique and state-of-the-art circuit. Built with the concept of a 'natural stadium', more than 5,000 palm trees were planted around the circuit to retain its scenic green and as time goes by, many trees were planted to add more beauty to the track.


Sepang International Circuit is home for motorsports lovers and I am one of them.  SIC was officially opened on March 9, 1999 by our former fourth Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad. It was complete in 14 months with ultramodern facilities and it was given the honour to incorporate the F1 logo in its name. Situated 85km from Kuala Lumpur city centre and located closely to Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) which makes this circuit an ideal place for world-class international events. This track can accommodate around 130 thousands spectators.


The length of this circuit is 5.543 km with 15 turns and 8 straights with access speed of more than 300km/h and you will experience a race full of suspense and thrill. There are a few events or activities were held there for example the Formula 1 Malaysian Grand Prix, Motor GP, Malaysia Merdeka Endurance Race and many more. There are several facilities provided there for example they have helipad, perdana suite, paddock club, welcome centre, media centre, mall area, corporate suite and so on.


We all can agree that Sepang International Circuit is one of the best race tracks in the world. If you want to experience a suspense and thrill race, just watch Malaysian Grand Prix and I know you will love Sepang International Circuit. Thank you for reading my post everybody. Peace out ya’ll. Here are some pictures for all of you out there.
