Big things have been going on in MotoGP lately.
First, there was the launch of a new logo (which, to be honest, was a bit meh). Then came the drama with KTM’s insolvency and uncertain motorsports future—not to mention rumors swirling about Pedro Acosta already being in talks with a certain red Italian manufacturer.
But now, there’s some really exciting news for MotoGP fans, especially those living in South America: MotoGP is officially making its long-awaited comeback to Brazil.
From the 2026 season, Brazil will host MotoGP for five consecutive seasons, running all the way through 2030. The deal was made with the government of Goiás—the most populous state in the country’s midwest—alongside Brasil Motorsport, Brazil’s leading motorsport media company. If that name sounds familiar, it’s because Brasil Motorsport is a key player behind the success of the Formula 1 Sao Paulo Grand Prix. So yeah, they know a thing or two about hosting epic racing events.
