Manama : Bahrain International Circuit (BIC), the Home of Motorsport in the Middle East, continues to ramp up the activity at its world-class facility with the first exciting double-header of the 2024/2025 season this weekend.
Two popular offerings will be happening on track – offering supreme thrills for all kinds of participants.
Taking place in the morning of Friday October 11, the latest installment of the Batelco Fitness on Track – BIC’s fun, physical activity which can be enjoyed both on foot or on a bicycle.
Then, on Saturday October 12, the circuit brings back its hugely enticing Track Experiences for the first time this new campaign.
Track Experiences will give fans the chance to get into the hot seat, either as a driver or a passenger, in three ultra-quick cars, including the Renault Clio Cup and the SR1 and SR3 Radicals.
To secure a spot in either activity or to get more information, visit BIC’s official website bahraingp.com or call the BIC Hotline on +973-17450000.
Batelco Fitness on Track can be enjoyed individually or with friends and the whole family.
Friday’s event will be taking place from 6am to 10am.
Runners and walkers will be utilising BIC’s 2.550-kilometre Inner Circuit, while cyclists will get to ride their bikes along the 3.543-kilometre Outer Circuit, with another dedicated area for children’s cycling.
The cost to take part is BD2 for cyclists and BD1 for runners.
Payment must be made upon booking. Children under the age of 12 can participate for free if accompanied by a paying adult.
BIC’s Batelco Fitness on Track Season Pass is also available.
This is ideal for regular participants as it grants access to all Batelco Fitness on Track events throughout the season, at the affordable price of just BD15.
The pass is thus a great way to save money over the course of the year, with Batelco Fitness on Track being held multiple times each month, all the way through to April of 2025. Season Passes can be purchased by contacting the BIC Hotline.
Meanwhile, Track Experiences will offer race fans a pure adrenaline rush while navigating the challenging turns of a globally renowned Formula 1 venue.
Saturday’s Track Experiences is scheduled for 8am to 3pm.
Fans will get an awesome introduction into the high-octane world of motorsports in the Clio Cup Experiences. The Renault Clio Cup sports car boasts a 1.6-litre, Turbocharged engine.
The Driving Experience takes the participant onto the track behind a professional instructor in a lead-follow manner, while the passenger experience requires those taking part to simply buckle up and enjoy the ride!
The Radical SR1 Driving Experience is ideal for amateurs and racers alike as the car’s 185bhp engine roars like no other. Interested participants must complete a Clio Cup Drive in order to take part in this activity.
In the Radical SR3 Passenger Experience, fans will be taken from zero to 100kph in about 3.4 seconds, making for a memorable number of laps around BIC.
