MotoGP is thrilled to lock in a two-year deal with the Autodromo Internacional do Algarve, securing this iconic track for the 2025 and 2026 seasons. Since its first race, the AIA has been home to some unforgettable moments, with six Grands Prix already leaving their mark on recent history.

Portimão offers the perfect mix: a world-class racing venue and a fan-favorite destination. The event not only draws massive crowds, but it also boosts the local economy, attracting hundreds of thousands of fans to Portugal during the off-peak tourist season. With two more Grands Prix confirmed, expect even more thrilling action and a positive impact when MotoGP returns in 2025 and 2026.

Jaime Costa, CEO of the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve: “It's a great source of pride to be able to continue having a MotoGP round at the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve and to see the recognition of our effort and work, which has been going on since 2020.

“The Portuguese Grand Prix and our track, with its unique features on the calendar, are already a benchmark for riders and teams. The fact that we have signed a two-year contract allows us to look at the event in a completely different way, with a continuity of improvement in the spectator experience, in order to reach record numbers of visitors to our circuit and consequently to the country and region, emphasizing its economic added value for the territory. We are already working on the 2025 GP, so that will once again, be a unique event in Portugal.”

Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of Dorna Sports: “We’re very happy to announce that we will be racing in Portugal for at least another two years. Since we first went to the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve, it has become a favourite for many fans and riders, and it’s easy to see why. Not only is it a beautiful place to race, but the event itself has improved every year, and we are very proud to be able to make such a positive economic, sporting and social impact on the area. We look forward to seeing our Portuguese fans again in 2025 and 2026.”
