Formula One fans the 2017 Malaysia Grand Prix will be returning for its penultimate edition in Sepang before taking a break from hosting the event. This will be the 19th race to be held in Malaysia at the Sepang International Circuit. The hosts and Malaysia Airlines are now teaming up to make the Grand Prix weekend more accessible to fans with special offers.
This year the Malaysia Grand Prix will host round 15 of the 20-race calender, right after the Singapore GP. The opportunity to watch the race live has been made possible with Sepang International Circuit (SIC) and Malaysia Airlines offering airfare prices starting at Rs 43,999 and providing special prices for the race weekend from 29 September to 1 October 2017.
“In recent years, we have seen fans opting to skip the live race experience in Sepang, with high ticket prices among the reasons for doing so. This year, in an unprecedented strategy, SIC is offering flat rates for the Main Grandstands and significantly lower ticket prices at other areas. In the past years, maintaining strong spectator numbers has sometimes been a challenge, so we hope this new pricing structure will enable all fans to watch the race live from the circuit,” said Dato’ Razlan Razali, Chief Executive Officer of SIC.
