KOMPAS.com – Racing fans and newcomers who intend to watch bike action while exploring Indonesia’s resort island of Lombok can now book the tickets for the 2022 MotoGP Grand Prix via tiket.com, the country’s Online Travel Agent pioneer.
The company has been appointed as the official ticket and travel app partner by the Mandalika Grand Prix Association (MGPA) and Dorna Sports, the organizers of the premier class of motorcycle road racing events at the Pertamina Mandalika International Street Circuit from March 18-20, 2022.
The newly-built Mandalika circuit, inaugurated by President Joko Widodo on November 12, 2021, features 4.31 km in length with 17 corners. When crossing the track, the racers are treated to breath-taking views of a stretch of sandy beach in Tanjung Aan and Seger against the backdrop of hills and greenery.
The Mandalika Street Circuit grandstand can accommodate 50,000 seats, while the standing tribune can hold 138,000 people. In November last year, the circuit also staged the World Superbike event, where Toprak Razgatlioglu claimed his champion title. This year, the circuit is set to host the MotoGP World Championship Grand Prix.
