About the event

The Australian Grand Prix is one of MotoGP's most spectacular races, held at the fast, sweeping Phillip Island circuit on the coast south of Melbourne since 1997. Its long, committed corners and unpredictable seaside weather off the Bass Strait make it a rider favourite and a frequent classic. Valentino Rossi's eight premier-class wins here are the record. The 2026 race is on 23-25 October.
