Rovinj has been added to the competition calendar as the third stop of this year's championship to replace Sochi, Russia, which pulled out for financial and organisational reasons.
"It is a great pleasure for us to be able to once again host a Red Bull Air Race and make it possible for fans from throughout the country and abroad to experience the magic of this exciting motorsport," Maistra CEO Tomislav Popovic said.
The eight-stop 2015 Red Bull Air Race World Championship began in Abu Dhabi in February and is now preparing for the first ever stop in Chiba, Japan. After Rovinj, the remaining races will be held in Budapest, Hungary, (4-5 July), Ascot, United Kingdom (15-16 August), Spielberg, Austria (5-6 September), Fort Worth, Texas, USA (26-27 September), and Las Vegas, Nevada, USA (17-18 October).
Croatia hosted the championship for the first time in 2014, when over 50,000 people enjoyed the show in Rovinj.
