The spectacular Grand Harbour of Valletta, surrounded by historical cities and imposing fortifications, provides a unique backdrop for the Powerboat P1 event. With its strong maritime heritage, stunning scenery and mild climate, Malta is an ideal venue for this water based event.
The 2008 Powerboat P1 Grand Prix of Malta will be held on the 6th, 7th and 8th of June.
It's exhilarating, dramatic, action-packed and one of the fastest growing motor sports in Europe. In the finest of racing traditions, sleek powerful machines, in the hands of skilled pilots, compete for the challenge and the glory. Echoing the great history of races such as Le Mans, Sebring, the Targa Floria or the Mile Millia, this is Powerboat P1, a fresh dynamic lifestyle sport where talented racers demonstrate daring and great skill as they take on the might of the open seas in a series of closely-fought endurance races.
Televised to over 100 million homes worldwide, Powerboat P1 combines spectacular action, with the glamour of international motor sport. Racing takes place close to the shoreline in some of Europe's finest holiday seaside destinations attracting large crowds. Last season the carnival atmosphere of a Powerboat P1 race weekend was enjoyed by over 280,000 people.
