Kyalami dropped from next years WSB
Kyalami has been dropped from next years WSB calender in favour of Sepang, Malaysia. That means Kyalami have now lost both the Grand Prix (cars) and the WSB round. It begs the question, what next for the circuit?

Wasn't the circuit being shortened after thsi season, some of the land had been sold off for housing development, and the shortening had caused it to fall below minimum length requirements.

I don't think that one ever got anywhere. As far as I know the circuit remains intact.

Kyalami is much better than Sepang!
WSB have made a big mistake. |

The Kyalami round was always one of the best, and certainly a good way to open the season (when it did).
I think Kyalami has still been sold off to the developers, but they've held back on any plans to re-develop so far. |
