Bangkok F1 2028

[Yuletide]

Thailand is actively bidding to host its first Formula 1 Grand Prix as a Bangkok street circuit, with the government approving a significant $1.2 billion, five-year deal for 2028-2032 to boost tourism and investment, targeting the Chatuchak area for a temporary track featuring landmarks like Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal, pending final F1 approval.
Key Details:

• Goal: Bring F1 to Bangkok starting in 2028.
• Bid: A cabinet-approved $1.2 billion proposal for a 2028-2032 contract.
• Location: A proposed street circuit in Bangkok's Chatuchak district, utilizing existing roads and landmarks.
• Features: The proposed 5.7 km track includes an 800-meter straight near the central terminal and parks, aiming for a modern city-center race feel.
• Motivation: To attract global tourism, investment, and establish Thailand as a major event hub, building on its MotoGP success.
• Status: The bid is strong, with F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali impressed by the Thai government's plans, though final confirmation from F1 is awaited.

Why it Matters:

• Economic Boost: The event is seen as a catalyst for tourism, bringing international visitors and spending.
• National Prestige: Hosting F1 would position Thailand alongside Singapore as a key Southeast Asian F1 host.
• Urban Racing Trend: A Bangkok street circuit aligns with F1's shift towards city-based races.

Bangkok already congested without F1. Hosting it in central part of city is a big mistake.
But it will be successful unlike in sepang where F1 parties had to be toned down.

“boost tourism” is bs. bangcock is already the world’s most visited city with over 30m arrivals in 2025. it has 6.9m more visitor arrivals than 2nd place hongkang. how many more visitor arrivals does it wish to attract? 69m? this has more to do with bribes, corruption, and undertable sexchange of favor and funding. just like in sg’s f1.
