'''Kyalami''' (''My home'' in [[Zulu]]) is a motor racing circuit located in [[Midrand]], [[Gauteng]], [[South Africa]]. The circuit has been used for [[Grand Prix motor racing|Grand Prix]] and [[Formula One]] races and has hosted the [[South African Grand Prix]] many times. In recent years, the area surrounding the circuit has developed into a residential and commercial suburb of [[Johannesburg]]. The circuit has also played host to five rounds of the [[Superbike World Championship|World Superbike series]] from 1998 - [[2002 Superbike World Championship season|2002]].

The original, sweeping circuit was in use from [[1967 Formula One season|1967]] until political sanctions eliminated the [[Grand Prix]] after the [[1985 Formula One season|1985]] race. When the circuit was rebuilt in the early 1990s as part of a commercial development, the pit straight, Crowthorne bend, Barbeque and Jukskei sweep corners were either eliminated or heavily modified, with the result that the circuit became a narrow, twisty ribbon rather than one of the fastest circuits on the calendar. [[Formula One]] abandoned the rebuilt circuit in [[1993 Formula One season|1993]] after just two races (and a bankruptcy on the part of the promoter). Kyalami is currently under new management and 2008 will see the 50th Anniversary of the 9 hour revival being held at Kyalami with golden oldies like [[David Piper]] and others.

The South African Grand Prix has also been held at [[Prince George Circuit|East London]].

It was announced on [[July 21]], [[2008]] that Kyalami would host the South African round of the [[2008-09 A1 Grand Prix season]], taking over from the [[Durban street circuit]].
