The action never stops at Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) and this Friday ‘The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East’ hosts the second round of National Race Day.
Set to heat things up are three of the kingdom’s most tightly-contested circuit racing championships, namely the BIC 2,000cc Challenge, Bahrain Superbike Championship and the Bahrain Motorcycle Racing 600.
Action gets underway at 12.30pm under daylight and continues until past 9pm when BIC’s 2.55km Inner Track will be brilliantly illuminated by its state-of-the-art lighting system. All are welcome to attend and enjoy a full day’s racing.
The 2,000cc Challenge will be holding the second round of its 2017/2018 season. Former champion Shaikh Hamad bin Isa bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa dominated the championship-opener held earlier this month, winning both races in his Honda Civic.
Shaikh Hamad will be looking to continue his winning ways but will have a tough challenge ahead of him with a full grid of talented racers aiming to beat him to the chequered flag as rivals like race ace and popular rugby coach Lee Stones bid for podium glory too.
The 2,000cc Challenge will first get out on track on Friday at 2.15pm for Practice. It will then hold Qualifying at 4.10pm, to determine the start grid for Race One at 6.55pm. Race Two will wrap up all of the night’s action starting at 8.45pm.
