It held the Beijing round of China Circuit Championship (CCC)[6] for touring cars and China Superbike Championship (CSBK). The circuit became a replacement round of the 2011 FIA GT1 World Championship season after the Curitiba round had been cancelled. The race took place the week after the round held in Ordos, which is also located in China.
In 2014, Goldenport was added to the 2014 World Touring Car Championship season calendar after logistics regarding shipping for overseas rounds forced the FIA to remove the United States race at Sonoma Raceway in California, and add the third Chinese race (Shanghai and Macau are the other two).

The circuit is 2.390 km (1.485 mi) long in distance with the width between 12–20 m (13–22 yd). It is a FIA Class 3 Homologated Circuit with 2 grandstands and 25 pit garages.[7] The circuit has a very smooth surface and very little grip on several sections.[8]
