Portuguese motorcycle Grand Prix
[1] The reason for this was because the main Portuguese circuit at the time, the Circuito do Estoril, was not yet ready to be used for motorcycle racing.However, Portugal still wanted to host a round in the championship that year, and so opted to use the Jarama circuit until their own was ready for use.[1] The original plan was to host the race in Portugal at the Estoril circuit, but Jerez was chosen instead.[7] In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Portuguese Grand Prix returned as the season finale on an altered calendar in the 2020 MotoGP World Championship.On 2 August 2022, it was announced that Portuguese Grand Prix would be the season-opener event between 24–26 March.
