This is a really bumpy road course, in part because the track was built
on marshland near an earthquake zone. Some of the bumps and depressions
were so big when A1GP raced here rain early in the weekend it resulted
in puddles that never dried all weekend. Today the track mostly hosts
smaller events.

Circuit closed and demolition started in 2019. Mitime Motorsports will
build a new track in Chengdu however, featuring the first oval in China.

CDIC, as it was commonly known, had a few peculiarities. The notorious
puddles weren't from rain exclusively; the track itself was built right
on the water table so water would seep through the pavement. Grandstands
were quite small as well which is fairly common across most Chinese
tracks. The kerbs at the chicane were known for ripping off front wing
end plates.
