The government of South Australia has submitted a proposal to MotoGP to organise what would be the first street race in the history of the championship in Adelaide once the current contract with Phillip Island expires.
On Tuesday, the government of Victoria publicly rejected a proposal from MotoGP Sports Entertainment – the promoter of the MotoGP World Championship, formerly known as Dorna – suggesting that the Australian Grand Prix, held for several decades at Phillip Island, be moved to the Albert Park circuit. The venue, located in central Melbourne, already hosts Formula 1’s Australian round, with the 2026 running of the race taking place next March.
