The race titled Run the Track was first held in Shanghai in 2015 and inspired by the informal races held at Formula One circuits around the world in which drivers, team members and marshals compete.
About 200 families with children aged from 5 to 10 also enjoyed the New Year run on Tuesday as a parent-child carnival was held at the circuit for the first time this year.
