COVID-19, the coronavirus, is slowly impacting our lives and while we hope that there will be positive changes soon in the spread of the epidemic, event organisers in Malaysia are considering the situation seriously. This is of great importance as there is a risk of infection when large groups gather, as has been evident in other countries. Therefore, some events may have to be postponed or cancelled to reduce the risks.
Motorsports is one of the events which has large crowds of spectators and in view of the risk, the organisers of the 2020 Liqui Moly US Legend Cars Championship have decided that the inaugural championship will be postponed.
The first round of the 6-round championship series was to have been held on March 13 at Perak’s T-City Gopeng Motor Speedway (shown above).
In a statement issued today, the organisers said that US Legend Cars Malaysia is closely monitoring the situation. “Further to this, with various other uncertainties in the country, the management of US Legend Cars Malaysia has deliberated intensely and decided to postpone the championship. The decision was not an easy one to make, especially with much preparation already done,” the statement said.
New dates will be announced at a later date and would be dependent on how the situation evolves.
