Malaysia to host GP event in April

KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters): Malaysia will replace Argentina as the venue for a world motorcycling championship race on April 2 next year, officials said on Thursday.

Hussin Ali, general manager of the Sepang circuit, said Argentina, who hosted on Oct. 31 the final grand prix of this year's championship, felt they did not have sufficient time to prepare for another race in April.

In October, the new Sepang circuit was the venue for this season's penultimate Formula One world championship race.
