Bahrain International Circuit
The Bahrain International Circuit, a 5.412 km track in Sakhir, Bahrain, opened in 2004. It hosts the Formula One Bahrain Grand Prix, the first F1 race in the Middle East, and other events like FIA Formula 2 and 24-hour endurance races. Designed by Hermann Tilke, the $150 million circuit features six layouts and uses an adhesive to prevent sand disruption. The track's highly praised surface is made from graywacke aggregate from England. In 2014, the first corner was named after Michael Schumacher.
