The move was made to try to improve safety by reducing cornering speeds, and in a marginal way for cost reasons; the winner was decided by bid.[1] Michelin, one of the two tyre suppliers in 2008, decided not to bid for the supply,[2] effectively declaring Bridgestone the winner, which was confirmed on 18 October 2008.[3] Bridgestone will be the sole tyre supplier from 2009 to 2011. Only race spec tyres will be provided to the teams, eliminating qualifying tyres, in use until 2008.

  • DOOHAN CLINCHES MALAYSIAN GRAND PRIX TITLE (Bernama
    13 APR 1997 Grand Prix-Malaysia DOOHAN CLINCHES MALAYSIAN GRAND PRIX TITLE SHAH ALAM, April 13 (Bernama) -- Australian Michael Doohan began his campaign for his fourth consecutive world title in style by clinching the 500cc event in the Malaysian Motorcycle Grand Prix at the Shah Alam Circuit here today. Doohan, who had three victories at the 3.505km track here but finished a poor fifth last year, claimed his 35th grand prix victory with his Honda machine by breaking the six-year-old lap record of one minute 25.100s. He clocked 1:24.840s on the 13th lap in a wet condition, erasing the old mark set by American John Kocinski enroute to winning the first Malaysian Grand Prix in 1991. Last year's runner-up Alex Criville of Spain kept his tussle for world title by taking the second spot, 11.796 seconds slower than Doohan's winning time of 47 minutes 11.545 seconds. Nobuatsu Aoki of Japan, a rookie for 500cc, surprised even himself as he finished third ahead of defending champion, Luca Cadalora of Italy while Nobuatsu's twin brother Takuma ended in fifth position. Japan's Tadayuki Okada, who took the pole position after setting the fastest time in the qualifying practice, had a poor outing when he could only finish 10th due to some mechanical problem with his bike. "I picked the right tyres but I was not really pushing myself today. I tried to pull away from the others but I was quiet surprise as the Aoki brothers gave a strong challenge," said Doohan.

A total of 19 riders will be testing their machines over a four-day session which begins on March 11, two days after the official opening of the 5.542km circuit by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad. SIC chief executive officer Datuk Ahmad Bakri Shabdin said today the large number of riders testing showed that they were serious about the Malaysian Grand Prix. "This track is challenging and all of them will want to do well here especially since the Malaysian GP is the opening round," he said. The Malaysian GP will be staged from April 16 to 18. The IRTA (International Racing Team Association) testing session was first conducted at the circuit from Feb 2 to 5. Doohan, who was not here for the first session, will be riding at the circuit for the first time. The Australian, who has been unbeatable on his Honda for the past five years, will be out to learn the circuit well for the Malaysian leg of the World Grand Prix Championship, the opening round of the 1999 season. Hot on Doohan's heels will be Kocinski, who is no newcomer to the Malaysian racing scene, having raced here a number of times.
