V8 Supercars Street fight continues in Malaysia

Is the Kuala Lumpur City Grand Prix Supercars championship race on this year? Or not?

Depends what you read and who you talk to.

Malaysian media is reporting that the street race, where Australia’s Supercars are booked to hold a round of the championship in August on a tight circuit in the heart of Malaysia’s capital, Kuala Lumpur, “won’t be held” this year as different parties squabble over ownership of the event.

It’s the latest, risky move to turn Supercars into something more than a strong domestic attraction, with appeal beyond Australia and New Zealand.

So the event is on, for now.
