The PT Songkhla Grand Prix, which was flagged off on Wednesday and wraps up today, was held in the picturesque setting of the Chalatat Beach. The newly developed street circuit saw contestants zooming down 2.7 kilometres per round.
The aim of the Grand Prix was not just to elevate the abilities of Thai racers, but also to help develop the motorsports industry in the region.
Songkhla also stands to benefit from a surge in tourist arrivals now that it is fast becoming a motorsport hub.
