Since 1987 the race was held on the newly built Brno Circuit, [2] the historical track led through the streets of western parts of Brno and neighboring villages, such as Bosonohy and Žebětín. It was the most prestigious motor race in the country. [3] Brno has also held the most motorcycle championship rounds in the sport's history after the TT Circuit Assen. [4]
The race was not included in the 2021 calendar after Brno city councillors announced that they would opt out for the season, citing financial difficulties due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [5] The race has also been absent from subsequent seasons.
On 28 August 2024, the Prime Minister of the Czech Republic Petr Fiala announced that Brno will return to MotoGP for the 2025 season. [6]
