Calendar

[edit]

On 12 July, GP2 Series organisers announced a provisional calendar for their second season. Unlike the first season of the GP2 Asia Series, this season will start prior to the new year, and be expanded to six events from the previous five. The Indonesian round has been dropped, while Bahrain earns a second event and Shanghai earns its first GP2 races. Shanghai will also host the official GP2 Asia Series test session prior to the start of the season.^[31]

The sprint race of the second round of the championship – at theDubai Autodrome – was cancelled due to flooding.^[32]

On 17 December, an alteration was made to the calendar, with theLosail International Circuit inQatar replacing the February meeting in Dubai. The meeting was also moved to February 12–14 because the original date on the calendar was unsuitable, due to MotoGP testing. This event introduced night racing to GP2, following the circuit's lead withMotoGP and its support classes and alsoFormula One's night race inSingapore.^[33]
