Portimao named as 2023 MotoGP season opener Full story 👉 MotoGP
The Portuguese Grand Prix at Portimao will become the opening event of the 2023 MotoGP season, on March 24-26.
Qatar has stepped down from the coveted season-opening spot due to ‘extensive renovation and remodelling to the paddock area and circuit facilities’, which has forced MotoGP’s only night race to be held later in the 2023 campaign. There will be official pre-season tests held at the Portimão circuit during the weeks before the event, the dates of which - like most of the 2023 calendar - are still to be confirmed.The date of March 26 for the opening round has raised some eyebrows, since it is three weeks later than this year's Qatar season-opener, even though the 2023 racing season is again expected to consist of at least 20 rounds.
