Indonesia and Dorna have therefore embarked on a pharaonic project in a promising environment but which is not forgotten the anger of the elements and nature. A colossal investment will be made for a tourist site which will be the setting of a jewel in the form of a road circuit for international racing competitions. Superbike and MotoGP. So you shouldn't miss it. And one of the keys to success will be the quality of the asphalt which will cover this unique route. A subject that we know is essential since last year's British Grand Prix...

We will not recall that the bitumen of the circuit Silverstone was not for nothing in the cancellation of all Sunday festivities. But it will be said that the reputation of the perfidious Albion will not have been tainted by this fiasco. Indeed, the brand MRK1 Consulting, a building contractor in charge of the Mandalika circuit, will ensure that a track with good grip is built. The construction of MRK1 Consulting will be done in collaboration with RoadGrip Motorsport. This will involve limiting traffic around the site in order to maintain the quality of the asphalt.

« One of our main activities with RoadGrip is maintaining the surface of highway and airport runways. RoadGrip has a technical department experienced in bitumen maintenance with certain specifications" , said Mark Hughes, representative of MRK1 Consulting.

« We will make recommendations regarding traffic restrictions on the circuit to minimize damage, contamination risks, and deploy special equipment to maintain grip on the asphalt" , has concluded Hughes.

The Mandalika Circuit will be the first MotoGP road race. Promoter Dorna Sports said the project would be very unique as the circuit will be built in urban areas and will offer a beautiful natural landscape.
