Motorkhana races to entertain fans of speed this weekend in Hanoi

The Vietnam Motorkhana Championship finals will take place at the Hanoi Circuit around My Dinh Stadium on Saturday. 

Nearly 30 drivers will attend the event which is officially organised at national level for the first time.

The track the drivers will race on was original constructed to host the Formula 1 event that was cancelled due to COVID in 2020.

Motorkhanas are motor sport events designed to test the acceleration, braking and handling of cars and the skill and judgment of drivers. It involves manoeuvring a car through tight tests as quickly as possible – one car at a time – on either dirt or bitumen surfaces. This usually requires sliding and spinning the car accurately while maintaining speed through the test course. Some reversing is usually included.

Vehicles used in racings are sedans, hatchbacks, CUVs and SUVs which are normal means of daily transportation.
