Thailand will once again take centre stage in the world of motorsport when it hosts the immensely popular PT Grand Prix of Thailand for the seventh consecutive year in February 2026.

Organisers yesterday confirmed their readiness for the Feb 27-March 1 event at Buri Ram's Chang International Circuit, which will serve as the curtain-raiser for the MotoGP season for the second year running. A preseason test will also take place at the same venue on Feb 21-22.

Under the concept "More than a Race", the 2026 event promises to deliver a turbocharged, action-packed, and immersive fan experience. Thailand aims to deliver the most memorable stop on the MotoGP calendar and is targeting to hit new attendance records.
