Where is the Aragon Grand Prix being held?

The MotoGP Aragon GP will take place at the MotorLand Aragon Circuit near Alacaniz in Spain. The track was designed by Hermann Tilke, who has also designed several Formula 1 venues like the Bahrain International Circuit, Marina Bay Street Circuit and the Yas Marina Circuit. 
 
MotorLand Aragon has hosted a MotoGP race since 2010, replacing the Balatonring in Hungary, which was initially postponed due to overrunning construction work. The inaugural race was won by Casey Stoner, who started from pole position and finished five seconds ahead of Dani Pedrosa. 
 
Marc Marquez has the most wins at the Aragon GP, taking six in total – including one Moto2 win in 2011 and a further five MotoGP wins in 2013 and 2016–19. The lap record was set at the 2022 Aragon GP by Luca Marini with a time of 1:47.795 on his Ducati Desmosedici GP22.

What happened at the 2023 Moto2 and Moto3 races at the Aragon Grand Prix?

With the 2023 Aragon GP cancelled due to resurfacing work, the last results come from the 2022 races. Pedro Acosta took his second victory of his rookie Moto2 year at the 2022 Aragon GP after starting from sixth place. The Ajo KTM rider took the lead on the penultimate corner of lap 10 and cruised to victory 2.612 seconds ahead of Aron Canet. 
 
Polesitter Izan Guevara won the Moto3 2022 Aragon GP race after leading every single lap. Despite a tight race over the 19 laps, the Spaniard broke away from the rest of the grid on the final lap, finishing just under a second ahead of Ayumu Sasaki to take his fourth win of the year.
