History
The first serious attempt outside Japan of constructing an Formula One circuit in Asia came in Indonesia about fifteen years ago when Hutomo Mandala Putra, son of president Suharto, was behind the construction of a track at Sentul. At 4.12 km, the Sentul International Circuit was supposed to be Indonesia's Formula One showcase to the world-until the 1997 Asian financial crisis kicked in. Completed in 1994, the facility has been overcome by technological changes, making it unsuitable to the fast and furious world of Formula One. But it was fine for the drivers competing in the 4th leg of the Pertamina Fastron Asian Formula 3 Super Series.
