MotoGP fans can breathe a sigh of relief as Valencia’s Circuit Ricardo Tormo has secured its place on the world championship calendar until at least 2031. Organizers confirmed on Tuesday that the Spanish circuit will continue hosting five more Grands Prix from 2027 to 2031.
The Valencia track, which made its MotoGP debut in 1999, has long been a fan-favorite, often serving as the dramatic season finale since 2002. Over the years, it has witnessed intense title showdowns, including the nail-biting battles of 2022 and 2023.
However, last season’s scheduled race was scrapped due to catastrophic flooding that damaged infrastructure, including parts of the access road to the track. The season-ending event was ultimately shifted to Barcelona, where Spanish rider Jorge Martin triumphed over Italy’s reigning champion, Francesco Bagnaia.
Valencia’s contract extension follows a similar deal signed last month by the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, ensuring both iconic Spanish venues remain at the heart of MotoGP for years to come.
