From GP2 press release
The Italian circuit of San Marino will host the final round of the GP2 Asia series on March 18, 19 and 20.
This will mark the return of the series to the San Marino track since 2006 where Gianmaria Bruni and Ernesto Viso respectively triumphed for Trident Racing and Racing Engineering.
This is also where the GP2 Series held its first ever race weekend on April 23-24, 2005 with Heikki Kovalainen winning the feature race for Arden International and Adam Carroll snatching victory in the sprint race for Super Nova Racing.
With Bahrain withdrawn from the 2011 GP2 Asia Series’ calendar, GP2 Series’ organisers have been hard at work these past two weeks to replace the last round of the fourth season of the category.
After having flown all cars and material back from Manama to Europe, the series’ goal was to find a venue and a date for a race weekend before the first testing days which will take place on April 5 and 6 in Silverstone.
