This season’s Joburg Kyalami 9 Ho ur will now take place on 3-5 February 2022 at Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit.
The ev ent\, which doubles as Intercontinental GT Challenge Powered by Pirelli’ s season finale\, was postponed last Friday as a result of international t ravel restrictions imposed on southern Africa following the discovery of t he Omicron coronavirus variant.
After extensive consultation with teams and manuf acturers the event has been rescheduled for February 3-5. The race will st ill take place on a Saturday\, as is tradition\, and avoids clashes with o ther major international endurance events. There is also sufficient time f or cars\, equipment and personnel to travel from South Africa to Australia for the Liqui-Moly Bathurst 12 Hour where IGTC’s 2022 campaign begins t hree weeks later.
The safety of all participants and staff will take utmost prior ity when considering whether the Joburg Kyalami 9 Hour can go ahead on its rescheduled date.
