Thailand MotoGP Tickets

History of the MotoGP Thailand Grand Prix

The inaugural Thailand motorcycle Grand Prix took place in 2018 at the Chang International Circuit in Buriram, 370 km east of Bangkok. Since 2025, it will be the opening round of the MotoGP World Championship. Over 800,000 fans visited the Chang International Circuit in the first four Grand Prix in Thailand, making it one of the most popular Grand Prix in Asia.

The Thailand MotoGP has taken place every year since 2018, with the exception of 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic. Marc Márquez is the winningest rider around the Chang International Circuit, with three Grand Prix wins to his name (2018, 2019, 2025).

The Thai Grand Prix is a physically demanding race due to the extreme weather that often results in high temperatures and humidity. As a result, the races are often very attritional and only the fittest riders can handle the 26 laps around the Chang International Circuit.

2025 Thai Grand Prix summary

Marc Márquez led the race from pole position until he conceded the lead to his brother Álex on Lap 7. Álex continued to lead until there were just three laps to go, when Marc retook the lead of the race. Marc had to fall back in the race to lower his front tyre pressure. Without swapping positions with his brother, Marc would have received a 16-second penalty, so he instead sat behind Álex while the temperatures dropped. Francesco Bagnaia joined the Márquez brothers on the podium, making it a Ducati lockout.
