A total of 135,224 spectators attended the Super Race, Korea’s largest motorsports feast, this year.”A total of 135,224 spectators gathered for the eight races held this season,” the Super Race said on Thursday, adding, “Although the total number of events decreased from last year, the number of spectators increased by more than 25,000.”SuperRace’s analysis shows that the team succeeded in attracting crowds considering that last year’s winner, AtrasBX, was unable to compete due to a fire at its parent company Hankook Tire’s Daejeon factory that disrupted tire supply.The average attendance per race (22,537) surpassed that of 2019 (22,375), the last year before the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
Excluding the COVID-19 period (2020-2021), the average annual attendance growth rate of 21% since 2015 continued its steep upward trajectory.Each circuit hosting the race also set a new attendance record.At the Yeongam Korea International Circuit, Round 3 attracted the highest number of spectators (17,441) since the Formula 1 (F1) Korean Grand Prix, while Inje Speedway attracted the highest number of spectators (15,354) since its opening in Round 4.The increase in female fans is also noticeable.Female ticket buyers accounted for 35.4% of all sales, up 21.4% from 2017, breaking down the stereotype that motorsports is only for men.In addition, 35-44 year olds accounted for 44.3% of all ticket purchases, with 23.4% of tickets sold to children, indicating that families are increasingly attending races.The 2024 season of the Super Race will kick off with the first round of racing at Everland Speedway on April 20 next year.
