Zhuhai International Circuit (
ZIC) is located at Jin Ding town in
Zhuhai City,
Guangdong Province, People's Republic of
China.
Motorsport started in Zhuhai when it hosted a race on its
street circuit in 1993, racing continued until 1996 when the motor racing circuit was constructed and became China’s first permanent motor race track with
Formula One in mind. The first international race held at the circuit was the
BPR Global GT Series. The circuit soon became the hotbed of local motorsports with teams from
Hong Kong and
Macau setting up their bases inside the circuit garages.

The circuit is long and has 14 turns. 9 of them are right turns and 5 are left turns and the circuit runs clockwise only. The shorter straight is long. The longest straight is the start/finish straight which is long and 14 metres wide at its widest. Alexandre Imperatori,
A1 Team Switzerland's rookie driver, suggested that there are lots of overtaking places in the circuit because of the combination of straights, hard braking areas for hairpins, tight corners, followed by and accelerating for long straights. Zhuhai International Circuit is an
FIA Grade II certified circuit.
