The 12-hour race starts on Saturday at noon, and runs continuously until the chequered flag at midnight. From 10am to 11am there will be a display of road-legal supercars racing around the circuit as a support event.

For those who wish to get closer to the action, they can purchase a paddock pass for RM106. This allows them to walk up the starting grid as the cars get ready for the green flag, and gives them access to the pit and rooftop area during the race. Tickets can be purchased at the pass collection point situated at the paddock entrance.

Speaking of the upcoming event, Stephane Ratel (Founder and CEO SRO Motorsport Group) said, “This is the second year that, in collaboration with the Sepang International Circuit, the SRO Motorsports Group organises the most important endurance race in South East Asia. With new title partner Motul onboard, 13 manufacturers represented on the starting grid and several Malaysian drivers competing, the Motul Sepang 12 Hours endurance is bound to give fans an unforgettable dose of racing action on Saturday at the Sepang International Circuit. I am very much looking forward to the event.”
