BMW’s Pit Lane Park will be coming to Malaysia during the KL Grand Prix week next month. It will be the first stop of five in the world, with the following being Barcelona, Silverstone in the UK, Nurburgring in Germany and Shanghai.

The BMW Sauber F1 Pit Lane Park will be located next to KLCC’s central prak along Jalan Binjai, and will be open from April 5th to April 8th. What exactly is a Pit Lane Park? Well, it has a miniature race track, mini grandstands, an F1 training centre and garage, a display of BMW race cars as well as other attractions.

The BMW F1.07 will be there and will alternate on-track throughout the day with a Formula BMW race car. There will also be stunt performances by BMW Motorrad, BMW’s motorcycle division. There are also other activities such as a public pit stop challenge and question-and-answer sessions with BMW Sauber F1 team mechanics and trainers. All in all, I think the event will be someting not to be missed for fans of Formula 1, especially the BMW Sauber F1 Team.

    This will be the next of extreme future sport. Superbike/motorcycle stunting. It is physically demanding and need more technical skill, balance and alertness compare to car drifting. I have seen other stunters ex. Teach Mcneil doing drifing on a bike going about 60 – 80 km/h and there are more stunts on bike as well other than wheelie. Acrobatics, Stoppie and others.
