Anting, Shencheng International Circuit.

The time is September, and the order belongs to the third autumn. In such a golden season, Shencheng finally ushered in the completion of the first professional track after the founding of the People's Republic of China. As an important part of the automobile culture created by Anting Automobile Park, Shencheng International Circuit will become another business card representing the development level of Shencheng's automobile industry after the Shencheng International Auto Show.

The entire circuit has a lap length of 5.45 kilometers and an average design speed of 205 kilometers per hour. The longest straight is 1175 meters long and is located between curves. The track is between 13 and 15 meters wide, usually 14 meters, with a spiral retraction between the widening of the corners to the maximum, where drivers can overtake their competitors with their skills.

In addition, in the overall structure of the track, if you look down from the top of the track, you will find that the whole track presents a dancing "up" shape, which is not only conducive to the high-speed track with high-horsepower engines, but also challenging corners that fully reflect the driver's skills.

It can be said that the Shencheng International Circuit, designed by Antonio, is definitely a world-class level.

At this time, next to the track, there is still a construction team building the grandstand area, and Li Mingzhe, who is wearing a hard hat, accompanied by Zhou Jingming and the relevant leaders of the Shencheng Municipal Government, is inspecting the completed track.

This track is a project jointly built by the Shencheng Municipal Government and the Ministry of Mechanical Engineering, in which Tianming Company also donated 50 million yuan for the construction of this track.

Minister Li, at present, the whole circuit is only in the stage of completion of the first phase of the project, the second phase of the project, will improve the entire circuit and its surroundings, after the completion of the racetrack, will include the circuit area, commercial exhibition area, cultural and entertainment area and development reserved area of the four parts, not only will become the window of the automobile industry in Shencheng, but also can greatly promote the development of the local economy. Zhou Jingming introduced while following Li Mingzhe.

At present, the only part that has been completed is actually the part of the velodrome area, and the other three parts are still in planning and construction. Moreover, in the whole circuit, especially the scale of the racing area, it mainly includes the track, the field command center, the medical emergency center, the news center, the security center, the racing modification center, the racing maintenance area, the grandstand facilities, the racing protection facilities, and even the helipad and other related supporting facilities.

The commercial expo area, which is still being planned, consists of a shopping mall and a racing museum, but this will not be completed until at least next year.

As for the cultural and entertainment area, which includes movie halls and bars, it was built even later.

However, whether it is a commercial expo area or a cultural and entertainment area, it is only an ancillary function of the Shencheng International Circuit, and its main function is to hold automobile events.

"What is the approximate number of spectators that can fit in the entire circuit?" Lee asked, nodding his head as he looked at the grandstand area under construction.

"Theoretically, it can accommodate 200,000 people to watch the game here at the same time, but now only the main grandstand area has been built, and the other secondary grandstand will not be completed until the end of this year," Zhou Jingming quickly replied.

The main grandstand area has fixed seats, and the top is covered by a canopy, and the number of seats designed is 50,000, and as for the secondary stand, it is a slope-shaped open-air stand, which is certainly not as good as the main grandstand in terms of viewing effect, but if it is completed, the ticket price will definitely be relatively cheaper.

"I heard that the design of the racing track this time was still the design inspiration you provided to the designer?" Li Mingzhe suddenly stopped, looked at Zhou Jingming, and asked with a smile.

The design inspiration that Lee Ming-che said naturally refers to is the shape of the runway in the shape of the "Shang" character.

Zhou Jingming scratched his head embarrassedly, "I also said it casually, who knew that he thought it was very good, and then adopted it." ”

This so-called "up" shaped runway design was not thought up by Zhou Jingming, because the Shencheng International Circuit before the rebirth was such a runway shape, Zhou Jingming just felt that such a design was very artistic, so he mentioned it to Antonio, but he didn't expect Antonio to adopt it on the spot.

At best, Zhou Jingming is just picking up people's teeth, otherwise, where would he know what track design.

"Don't be modest, I don't know you yet?" Lee Ming-che smiled, and then Z continued to walk forward, "Now that the track has been built, can we invite the FIA to review the track?"

Only by letting the F1 Grand Prix settle in Shencheng can this track give full play to its maximum value, otherwise it would be too wasteful to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on the track but not come in handy for a long time.

"I don't think there's any rush to let the FIA audit, and then invite the FIA to review it after all the racing areas have been completed at the end of the year. Zhou Jingming replied.

Although the main content of the FIA audit is the track, the relevant facilities of the racing area have not been fully constructed, which will definitely have an impact on the results of the review.

"That's fine. Lee Mingzhe nodded, "Then the RV Championship in October can be held as usual, right?"

The event, which was originally scheduled to start in June this year, has been delayed for nearly four months due to the construction of the track, and Lee Ming-che really can't wait to enjoy the exciting motorsports.

"As long as the rules of the championship are set by the FIA, I think the event can start in October as usual. Zhou Jingming replied.

On the side of Tianming Company, the design work of Yixuan SUV was completed as early as July, and a series of experimental tests have begun on the tooling prototype, and the modification factory has also begun to transform the racing car for this competition, and the transformed prototype is the Yixuan SUV that will be released next year.

In addition to Yixuan SUV, Tianming's Kirin sedan and Phoenix sedan will also participate in this China Touring Car Championship.

"The rules of the tournament should have been set, and I'll ask them to ask again. If it's really going to be in October, shouldn't the teams be invited?"

Now that we have just entered the beginning of September, it should be too late to send out invitations a month in advance.

"On the side of the participating teams, it is indeed time to send out invitations. Zhou Jingming nodded, "Although this competition is called the China Touring Car Championship, the participating teams can not be limited to China, such as Toyota, Honda and other car manufacturers in the island country, can be invited to participate in the competition, and can also take the opportunity to increase the popularity of this event." ”

"What about our domestic team? Except for Tianming Company, it seems that no other automobile company has its own team, so it can't just be a domestic car company in Tianming Company, so what is it called the China Touring Car Championship?" Li Mingzhe thought of this question and asked with a frown.
