Mumbai Falcons is expected to conduct its entire Asia Formula 3 operations from this new circuit. This will allow the team to have a base, give them access to industry-standard infrastructure and in turn, help the budding drivers to learn the craft of racing.

With that said, we have three major race tracks in the country which are the Buddh International Circuit (BIC), Madras Motor Race Track (MMRT), and Coimbatore’s Kari Motor Speedway. With the addition of this circuit, India’s motorsport grassroot will have access to even better equipment and facilities.
