The Season Opener of the 2009 Asian Festival Of Speed-Malaysia, to be held at the Sepang International Circuit, has been moved to the last weekend in May, 30-31 May 2009.

The event, which was scheduled to run on the 23-24 May weekend, has been moved to accommodate the schedules of some of the participating drivers and Team personnel who are involved in both the AFOS event as well as the A1GP series..

“We have had to change our dates to accommodate some of the drivers and Teams who are participating in the A1GP. They moved their date recently and we have to change ours to avoid a clash for some of our participants” said David Sonenscher, CEO of Motorsport Asia.

The 2009 Asian Festival Of Speed- Malaysia will be held on the full Grand Prix circuit at the Sepang International Circuit and will feature five of the Championships promoted by Motorsport Asia.

The Formula V6 Asia, Asian Touring Car Series, GT3 Asia and the Asian Touring Car-Max will all be competing in two rounds while the Formula BMW Pacific will hold four rounds during the weekend.
