JAKARTA – Construction of the Formula 1 (F1) circuit in Lagoi Bintan, Riau Islands Province, will start soon. This circuit will follow the Mandalika Circuit which puts forward the concept of natural scenery.
Chairman of the Indonesian Motor Association (IMI), Bambang Soesatyo, said that the groundbreaking marking the start of the project will be carried out on the nearest 17 March. The figure who also serves as Chairman of the Indonesian People's Consultative Assembly will attend the stone-laying event directly.
"Currently the study team is finalizing the Detail Engineering Design (DED) related to technical soil and natural conditions where the Bintan F1 International Circuit will be built", said Bambang in a statement on the Indonesian People's Consultative Assembly website on Monday, March 14.
DED Bintan F1 International Circuit is planned to match the concept of the Circuit in Mandalika which emphasizes natural scenery. The Bintan F1 International Circuit will be designed to offer a beautiful view of the Bintan sea.
