News Summary

MotoGP officially unveiled its 22-round calendar for the 2027 season on Friday, confirming the arrival of Buenos Aires and Adelaide alongside several changes to the championship’s schedule.

The season begins at Buriram with the Thailand GP on March 7, two weeks after the official 2027 MotoGP season launch in Rio de Janeiro. Qatar then moves to an early-season position before MotoGP returns to Goiânia for the Brazilian GP on April 4.

Argentina rejoins the calendar one week later, but MotoGP will no longer race at Termas de Río Hondo. The event moves to the renovated Autódromo Oscar y Juan Gálvez in Buenos Aires, which becomes the first of the calendar’s two new venues.

After Austin, the championship begins its European phase at Jerez. Le Mans, Mugello, Barcelona, Assen, Sachsenring and Brno follow before the summer break.

Silverstone opens the second half of the season on August 15, followed by Austria, Misano, Aragón and Portugal. Portimão moves forward to October 3 and becomes the final European round before the flyaway sequence.

Japan begins the Asian leg on October 17, followed by Malaysia and Indonesia. Adelaide hosts the Australian GP on November 14, replacing Phillip Island and becoming the penultimate round of the season.

The new Adelaide Street Circuit represents MotoGP’s first purpose-built city-centre event. The project remains subject to legal opposition in South Australia, but it retains its place on the officially released calendar.

Valencia once again hosts the finale, with the final races of the season scheduled for November 28 at Circuit Ricardo Tormo.

The Hungarian GP has disappeared from the calendar after two seasons at Balaton Park. Its removal allows Aragón to remain on the schedule in 2027 before MotorLand becomes a reserve venue from 2028.
