In a major boost for German motorsport, the Liqui Moly Grand Prix of Germany at the Sachsenring has been officially confirmed on the MotoGP calendar through 2031.
The announcement underlines the importance of Germany — the continent’s largest economy — as a motorsport market, and signals long‑term commitment to what is already one of the most popular race weekends on the calendar. As part of the deal, the event organisers alongside the state‑government of Saxony emphasised that the crowd appeal remains strong, citing attendance figures in excess of 250,000.
Track officials and stakeholders applaud the decision. For many, the Sachsenring has morphed from merely a racing venue into a “motor‑racing destination” with cultural and economic significance for the region. With this new contract in hand, investments in infrastructure, fan experience and the racing environment are expected to accelerate.
What this means for fans and teams alike: Expect more German‑based specials, events and hospitality upgrades; more certainty for manufacturers and riders planning seasons around the German leg; and a greater emphasis on the German weekend as a highlight rather than just another stop. Analysts believe this could lead to more high‑profile launches and manufacturer activity centred around Germany in the future.
