The Jerez circuit has recently assured fans that the 2025 MotoGP Spanish Grand Prix will go ahead as planned, despite the recent heavy flooding earlier this week that caused damage to some parts of the track.

Earlier this week, severe rainfall in the region led to flooding in several areas of the circuit, with the worst-hit spot being the run-off zone at the final corner. While this area will need repairs, the rest of the track itself remains intact.

The clean-up has already begun, and the circuit has confirmed that this year’s Grand Prix will not be affected.

In a statement on Instagram, they said:
“Despite the damage caused by the storm, we guarantee that the Spanish MotoGP Grand Prix will take place as scheduled. Our team has already started cleaning up and making necessary repairs.”

Workers have been clearing debris since early morning, and while these efforts will continue for a few days, they won’t disrupt the event. Only activities before the race might be slightly affected.

The flooding covered parts of the track with mud, gravel, and debris. The most impacted areas were Turns 7, 8, and 11, but the most significant damage was at Turn 13. While the turn itself is fine, the asphalt in the run-off area on the right side was lifted in a few spots and will need resurfacing. Fortunately, no injuries were reported among the circuit staff.

This situation brings back memories of last year’s deadly flood in Valencia, which damaged the track and forced the season finale to be moved.

For now, we can rest easy, as the Jerez circuit is working hard to ensure the Spanish Grand Prix will happen smoothly.
