Grand Prix of the Americas
In the third race of the 2026 MotoGP season, the riders head to Austin, Texas. The Circuit of the Americas is the first purpose-built Grand Prix facility in the U.S. near Austin, Texas, with a 5.513km track and a capacity for 120,000 fans. One of its more distinctive features is near 41m-elevation change with an impressive incline at the end of the home-straight followed by a sharp left. The circuit is one of the most varied on the GP circuit, with a mix of fast straights and tight hairpins, with most sections mirroring at least some part of a famous track around the world. 2013 was the magical year that introduced the Grand Prix of the Americas to the MotoGP calendar and this electrifying event took place at the Circuit of the Americas.
