JAKARTA - Minister of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) Erick Thohir denied that the Pertamina Mandalika International Circuit was stalled and useless. He said the circuit had organized hundreds of international standard events.
"So what was said earlier, oh this circuit will stall, it will be useless, it turns out that now it has 240 events. This means that it can be a business that can support it rather than maintaining this circuit," he said after the Media Briefing Asia Road Racing Championship (ARRC) 2024 & Pertamina Grand Prix of Indonesia-IndonesianGP (MotoGP 2024), at the Danareksa Tower, Jakarta, Friday, June 21.
This year, Erick said the Pertamina Mandalika International Circuit will host the Pertamina Grand Prix of Indonesian-MotoGP 2024 for the third time.
The international motorcycle racing event will be held from 27 to 28 September 2024.
"This is the third MotoGP implementation from a 10-year contract and frankly this is very terrorlable. If we think 3 to 4 years ago when 2020 I can't imagine we have a circuit like this, and it turns out that Indonesia can, Indonesia can and be one of the best," he explained.
