Losail International Circuit is a fabulous race venue near Doha, the capital city of Qatar. Building the track and surrounding facilities took more than a year and cost 58 million dollars. Losail International Circuit was officially opened in 2004. The first MotoGP round of Qatar was hosted in the same year with Sete Giberneau as the ultimate winner. One year later the World Superbike of Qatar was added to the calendar of this circuit, located in this impressive Persian Gulf State. The Qatar track made the MotoGP event even more spectacular by introducing permanent outdoor lightning in 2007. Since 2008 the MotoGP of Qatar in Losail is the one and only night race on the MGP calendar and is the opening race of the season ever since.
The difficulty of the Moto Grand Prix race in Qatar lies not within the track itself, but in other factors like local weather conditions and the location of the circuit. With a bit of bad luck the riders will have to cope with outside temperatures rising up to 41 degrees Celsius. It is hard to imagine being exposed to 55 degrees Celsius on the track, when wearing a full MotoGP outfit; leather suit, gloves and helmet. Therefore, the biggest challenge here is to keep the hot Moto rookies (and their bikes) cool during a burning race. An extra degree of complexity is the sand on the track coming from the surrounding desert. In order to fight-off the sand, the Qatar designers built a parameter of artificial grass to stop it from being blown on the asphalt. The only strip of green in this exhausted area in the Persian Gulf State.
Losail Circuit is recognized in the MotoGP Championship tour for its high profile safety policy and loved by the audience because of its great public facilities. Above all, Losail International Circuit itself promises nothing other than a pure joyride. This combination makes Losail one of the most attractive events on the calendar.
