About this event

Shanghai hosts one of the most visually striking rounds of the Aquabike Circuit World Championship, with a tight buoy course laid out against the city skyline. The compact two-day format packs qualifying and finals into a single weekend, so riders in Ski GP1, Runabout GP1 and Freestyle have little margin for error.

City-centre rounds like this one draw big crowds and heavy broadcast coverage, and the short course rewards precise line choice and hard braking into the turn buoys rather than top speed.
