DOHA:  Another exciting season of activities at Losail Circuit Sports Club (LCSC) is about to start.

In the next coming months, the circuit will host again racing championships, track days, training days to go along with karting and the Qatar Motorsports Academy.

Training days will remain to be held on Tuesday for ladies only and Wednesdays open for the general public.

The track is open both days from 5pm to 8.30pm and participants can bring their own bicycle, rent one at the track or can also run, walk and even go rollerblading.

If you are a fan of adrenaline and racing, the first track day for cars will be on September 26 and the 27th for bikes. On the same weekend you can also enjoy the karting-track, that opens again from 5pm to 10pm.

Like the previous seasons, another thrilling round of World Superbike Championship (WorldSBK) will take place under the floodlights of the Losail International Circuit. For the sixth year in a row, the LCSC will host the finale of the WorldSBK from October 24 to 26 with evening races scheduled on Friday and Saturday.

Grandstand tickets start from as little as QR20, and all ticket holders will have free access into the Paddock, Pit Walk on Friday and Saturday and will be able to watch the Podium Ceremony of the winners at the Paddock. Fans can enter into a raffle and stand a chance to win access to the starting Grid for the WorldSBK races.
