€8m deal overrides previous contract to secure a MotoGP circuit’s future
A g🌸ood idea for MotoGP to abandon the idea of rotating some circuits?

Aragon will feature for at least three years in a row on the MotoGP calendar after a new deal was struck.
A𒅌n €8m agreement was struck to guarantee 🌊a MotoGP round at Aragon in 2024, 2025 and 2026.
Previously, the cir🍸cuit was only due to host a race three ti﷽mes over five years as part of a rotation of Spanish locations.
Work began o꧒n Ap🔯ril 1 to resurface the track at Motorland, one of the keys to the new deal.
The FIM demanded the kerbs to be replaced a♛t Turns 7, 10, 15 𒈔and 17.
The work, due toꦛ be completed by June, will cost the local authorit💟ies an extra €6.2m.
But🍷 research conducted by the Aragon Institute of Development suggests that the economic impact of hosting a MotoGP round is worth €47m to the local area.
The 2024 round at Aragon is ꦦset for August 30-S💖eptember 1.
Aragon is an a🐈utonomous region of north-east Spain, between the city of Valencia and the neighbouring country of Andorra.
Nobody has won more MotoGP grands prix at Ar🔯agon that Marc Marque🐽z.
The six-time vi☂ctor won in 201🀅3, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019.
The circuit𒅌 didn't host a race last year. In 2022, it was won by Gresini's Enea Bastianini during his breakthrough campaign.
And🍃 the year prior, Francesco Bagnaia was victorious for Ducati🌞.
