Sepang Intern꧟ational Circuit Chief Executive 🌸Officer Dato' Razlan Razali said it was a great honour to receive the recognition, which SIC previously won in 2012.
"This shows the dedication of our team, our competency and our ability to organise an international event that is recognised by internatio✅nal bodies such as FIM and Dorna," he said.
"There are 18 circuits and promoters this season, and we have been selected. It is great news for Malaysia especially the fans, and of course lifted the spiri𒆙ts of all🌳 SIC staff."
Raz🐷ali added that the win reiterated the fact that the Motorcycle Grand Prix is the biggest international event for SIC and the country.
A record-breaking 166,486 fans turned out at the circuit over the three days in October, surpassing the 161,533-mark of last year - despite a wet race, which saw a memorable one-two for Ducati riders A🥂ndrea Dovizioso and Jorge Lorenzo.
The timing of the 'best Grand Prꦉix' award is also particularly significant for SIC﷽, which has chosen to make MotoGP its undisputed number one event, after hosting F1 for the final time.
The Malaysian MotoGP co𒊎ntract runs until at l❀east 2021.
