Organisers of the Japan Super GT series have decided to cancel the exhibition race scheduled for later this month at the Korean International Circuit in South Korea.
Italiaracing.net writes Friday that the race, planned for May 18 and 19 has been cancelled, although the news has yet to be officialised.
Rumours suggest that the event was cancelled because of the high costs of shipping the cars and equipment from Japan to South Korea, and mostly because of the high political tension created by North Korea.
The Super GT series was to be the first major international racing event to be held in South Korea this year at Yeongam. The Formula 1 Grand Prix is scheduled for October 4 to 6 later this year.
