Will be so sad': Riders lament last lap of 'legendary' track, Spaniard 'more Rossi than Rossi' - MotoGP Australia preview

Riders at Australia’s Phillip Island say they’re soaking up the “legendary” track for one last stretch, as the MotoGP Australian round prepares to leave Victoria. MotoGP’s 2025 race was the penultimate year of a 10-year contract, and the series has already announced the event will move to South Australia and Adelaide on a new city parklands circuit starting next year. In August, first renders were released for a 15-turn, 4.13km, $96 million venue. For the current event, the paddock is focused on savoring Phillip Island’s setting for three more days, with riders and teams reflecting on last-lap moments and the future change ahead.
