The TT Assen is called ‘The Cathedral’ of motorcycle racing - and MotoGP is preparing for another pilgrimage to the holy land this weekend for the next round of the 2022 world championship.
Only missing in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, the TT Assen has been an iconic mainstay of motorcycle Grand Prix racing since the world’s first motorsport World Championship began in 1949. It has become one of the biggest annual sporting occasions in the Netherlands, with thousands of fans travelling from across Europe to create an electric atmosphere.
The venue has gone from a long street circuit to a shorter but no less incredible track over the seven decades since, creating some of the greatest racing in the world every time racing returns to its home. After a stunning German Grand Prix, fans and riders alike are ready to see what drama Assen whips up on its latest showing.
