Motul 12 Hours of Sepang returns with high rev adrenaline on 16 March 2024

Top Speed, Motul and Pirelli is joining forces for the return of 12 hours endurance racing at Sepang International Circuit, with an additional class. The Motul 12 Hours of Sepang is set to take place from 14-16 March 2024, with race day is happening on 16 March 2024 at 10am until 10pm (Malaysia timing).

The endurance race will include teams from the Asia Pacific region, from China to New Zealand, which will see both local and international pilots behind the wheel. The grid will see a mixture of professional racing drivers, who have won everything from the Dubai 24 hours, Nürburgring 24 Hours, 24 Hours of Le Mans and Shanghai 8 Hours, to young talent and passionate gentleman drivers, race around the former-Formula 1 circuit for line honours. Each entry also has a mandatory bronze driver.

The Motul 12 Hours of Sepang will not only have a diverse range of participants but will also see machinery from six different GT3 manufacturers – Lamborghini, Porsche, Audi, Aston Martin, Mercedes Benz and Ferrari, powered by Pirelli, and three different classes, GT3, GT Cup and TCR Endurance Asia.

After supporting the inaugural Shanghai 8 Hours in October, the sister event to the 12 hours of Sepang, Pirelli will be the official tyre manufacturer this weekend to ensure consistency and quality across the board.

The race will be free to watch, live and uninterrupted worldwide, on the new Motul 12 Hours of Sepang Facebook and YouTube page. It will also feature on Top Speed’s Facebook page. In addition, there will also be two live streams available in China.

Over 100 media have been accredited for the event, from Malaysia, Australia, Singapore, Thailand, New Zealand, Germany and China.

Free access to the grandstand is also available for fans to come and watch in person.

Davide de Gobbi, Owner and General Manager of Top Speed:

After a successful event in 2023 which we showed to over 2.6 million viewers worldwide, we are happy to bring the 12 Hours back to Sepang with Pirelli and Motul by our side. We are proud to once again have an entry list filled with teams from the Asia Pacific, with a 25% growth from last year, and such a diverse range of talent on track.
