The success of the MSS in 2011 saw a huge interest in the participation of the race as well as the slots running together with the series. Back then, Formula Pilotta, and the Scirocco Cup debuted their races in Malaysia knowing that the well-run MSS would provide added value to their drivers and series.
In 2012, the motorcycle category will continue to run during the Malaysian World Motorcycle Grand Prix (MotoGP) and the car categories will run its first round as the support race during the Formula One Malaysian Grand Prix.
