The Vietnam GP track revealed
The organizers of the Vietnam Grand Prix, which will take place next year, have unveiled the final version of the street circuit, which will ultimately feature 23 turns.
Scheduled for the weekend of April 5, between the Bahrain and China Grand Prix, the new race in Vietnam will take place on a street circuit in the capital, Hanoi.
A first track layout had been presented a few weeks ago, but today, the race organizers unveiled the final circuit, which now features 23 turns instead of the originally planned 22.
« We have slightly modified turns 22 and 23. » specifies Le Ngoc Chi, the General Director of the Grand Prix. « It’s an urban track; you have to adapt it to the actual geographical conditions of the area and ensure it meets all FIA and F1 requirements. » he continues.
The track, currently under construction, is expected to be operational by the end of January 2020 and will offer drivers a 5.607 km long layout.
