(AGENPARL) – PARIGI gio 01 giugno 2023 Sport news

The venue is to be set by the city of Elbasan, roughly 40 kilometres from Albania’s capital city, Tirana, and 75km from the second biggest city in the country, Durrës.

Local authorities were represented by Auto Club Albania President Niko Leka, Mayor of Elbasan Municipality, Gledian Llatja, and Director of General Directorate of Road Transport Service Blendi Gonxhja.

The circuit was designed by Test & Training International, a vastly experienced company founded by former Formula 1 driver and two-time 24 Hours of Le Mans winner, Alexander Wurz, who was also on site and presented a design study, outlining an overview of the project, including buildings and architecture and zoning analysis.

The project also takes environmental measures into account as well as the potential economic and social impact of the circuit on local communities.

The initial target for the circuit is to obtain Grade 3 of FIA Circuit License, allowing racing with cars of power to weight ratio of 2-3kg/bhp and therefore open to classes such as Formula 3, Formula 4, TCR and GT3.

Aside from hosting motor sport events, the objective of the circuit is also to enhance the growth of motor sport culture in the country as well as neighbouring Balkan countries and to serve as a facility for fleet driver training, also for services such as police and ambulance drivers.

The objective is to complete the circuit in three years’ time.
