Orange Media Open Track is back this Saturday (Feb 3) at Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) in Sakhir, offering speed enthusiasts the incredible chance to drive a world-renowned Formula 1 facility.

This hugely popular activity, which is a fan-favourite at “The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East”, invites participants to bring their very own road cars or motorbikes and take them out for a spin within BIC’s safe and secure setting.

Saturday’s event will be held along BIC’s 2.55-kilometre Inner Circuit—the same raced on in the Kingdom’s leading national championships.  Action will be taking place from 11am to 7pm, starting off in daylight conditions and ending under the circuit’s bright, state-of-the-art floodlights.
