Grand Prix Track Owner in South Africa Plans Upgrade Amid F1 Bid
South Africa's Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit is planning an overhaul costing as much as a $10 million as the country prepares to submit a bid to host its first Formula 1 race in three decades.
Kyalami, located between the capital Pretoria and Johannesburg, needs a number of upgrades to get grade 1 accreditation from industry body the Federation Internationale de l'Automobile, the track's owner, Toby Venter, said at the circuit on Wednesday. The venue is working with the UK's Apex Circuit Design on the project, he said.
