JAKARTA - Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta Ahmad Riza Patria revealed one of the locations that would be an option for the implementation of Formula E, after canceling the location at Monas.
According to Riza, one of the five alternative locations for the Formula E circuit is a reclamation island, namely Pulau D or Pantai Maju and Pulau G or Pantai Bersama.
In addition, the Senayan area is also one of the choices for the electric car racing circuit.
"Earlier, the Jakpro Director said that it was not at Monas, there are five alternatives that will be checked later. There are various kinds, including in Senayan, at Pantai Maju, (Beach) Berrsama, and others," said Riza at the DKI City Hall, Central Jakarta, Wednesday, October 6th.
Previously, Managing Director of Jakarta EPIX PT Jakarta Propertindo (Jakpro), Gunung Kartiko admitted that his party was using the National Monument (Monas) area as a Formula E circuit next year due to licensing problems.
"Obviously the venue is not at Monas. That's just the clue, because Monas seems a bit heavy in terms of licensing. So we are looking for an icon location that really shows Jakarta," said Gunung at the DKI DPRD Building.
Moreover, said Gunung, if you want to make a Monas, it is feared that the circuit made will not be optimal because it uses non-permanent asphalt.
"If Monas used to know, it was on the asphalt kletek-kletek," said Gunung.
Therefore, currently Jakpro has chosen five alternative locations for the implementation of Formula E. However, Gunung does not want to mention where the five locations are. What is clear, the circuit will use the existing road and be re-paved.
"We will try, if you use the road, a maximum of three days. It is only an asphalt road, then it has special specifications. Maybe if you turn there is a certain accompaniment, then there are barriers along the way," he explained.
