Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) will host the first National Race Day of the 2023/2024 season on January 19.
This weekend’s event is set to feature two exciting local series, including the Bahrain Motorcycle Championship and Time Attack.
National Race Day is being organised and run by BIC in cooperation with the Bahrain Motor Federation, the Circuit Racing Club, the Bahrain Motorcycle Commission, and the Bahrain Autocross Commission.

National Race Day is bringing together the Kingdom’s leading local championships in one event, making for a packed meeting with non-stop thrills! Action is set to be held along BIC’s 2.55-kilometre Inner Circuit.
The Bahrain Motorcycle Championship is set to feature many of the Kingdom’s leading motorbike racers. They will be going wheel-to-wheel in two different competition classes, including the 1,000cc and 600cc.
