Chinese Grand Prix Moto GP - History
History - Facts - Winners
Shanghai is one of the most modern and technologically advanced cities in the world and now it has an impressive race circuit to match. The Shanghai International circuit situated outside China’s metropolitan port city was designed by Hermann Tilke and it hosted its first MotoGP race in 2005, but is already acknowledged as one of the most impressive race venues on earth.
Vast grandstands overlook an equally impressive pits and paddock complex adjacent to the high-speed 5.281km/3.281 mile circuit. The track includes two very fast straits where the bikes exceed 320km/199mph and a series of tight corners, including two long righthanders that almost takes the riders through 360 degrees.
