Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) shines the spotlight on the drift park this Friday with a special edition of Burnout Nights, to be held under the patronage of His Highness Shaikh Mohammed bin Khalifa Al Khalifa.

This widely popular activity is a highlight every Ramadan at “The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East”.

It offers participants the chance to put on an incredible show of rising white smoke.

Burnout Nights has always been a top attraction at BIC, bringing in a large group of participating drivers and scores of spectators to Sakhir to enjoy all the incredible action.

Friday’s Burnout Nights is scheduled to take place from 8pm to 12midnight.

Those interested in participating can register on site.

The cost to take part is BD8 per participant, with a fee of BD5.5 each for an accompanying passenger and/or crew member.

All entrants’ vehicles must meet specific eligibility criteria before being permitted to take part.

BIC is set to welcome the public, with its Spectator Grandstand, Crew Grandstand, and VIP Grandstand holding a capacity of nearly 3,000 seats.

They are all overlooking the drift park, part of the circuit’s vast vehicle dynamics area.

All are invited to attend and watch the captivating displays.

Tickets for spectators are BD2 apiece and BD3 for VIP seating, while VIP parking is available at BD5 each.

Friday’s event will be the second of this year’s Burnout Nights programme, with the first being a huge success held last week.

A third edition is also scheduled to be held on 29 March.
