Official representatives of Dorna Sports (the holder of commercial rights to the MotoGP series) and FIM (International Motorcycling Federation) plan to venture to the Crimea to assess Ukraine’s potential to host the World Championship.
As reported earlier, a new racetrack, the Crimea Grand Prix Circuit, is currently being built in Ukraine’s Crimea, just 6 kilometers from the resort city of Yevpatoria. The track has been developed by the renowned designer of such auto and motor cycling facilities, German architect Hermann Tilke.
The construction is being done by Stepracing Team Ltd. According to Anatoly Kuchmin, the construction company’s co-owner, both Dorna and FIM would like to see Ukraine host a MotoGP round, and are planning to visit the track this spring when the circuit, worth EUR 260m, is due for completion.
As announced earlier, a new A-category racing track – Crimea Grand Prix Circuit – is being built in the Crimea, outside of the city of Yevpatoria. It will be 19th on the global list of racing tracks that can be used for international racing events: MotoGP, Formula 3, WTCC and Formula 1 tests.
The chief designer of the track is none other than Hermann Tilke, renowned for the construction of the best racing circuits. It’s fair to say he nearly dominates the sphere of designing and licensing racing tracks. The project makes use of the best practices used in constructing international racing circuits in Malaysia, Brazil, Spain, France, Portugal, Bahrain, China, and Japan.
