2027 MotoGP Repsol Grand Prix of Portugal

• The 2027 round moves from late November to the first weekend of October and is the last European round before MotoGP heads to Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia and Australia. Valencia closes the season on 28 November.
• Three World Championship classes race over the weekend: MotoGP, Moto2 and Moto3.
• 2027 is the first season of MotoGP's new rules. Engines drop from 1000cc to 850cc, ride height and holeshot devices are banned, the front fairing is 50 mm narrower, the fuel is 100% sustainable and Pirelli takes over from Michelin as tyre supplier.
• The MotoGP lap is 4.59 km with 15 corners, nine right and six left.
• Early October in Portimão averages about 22°C by day and 15°C at night, with some rain on about 8 days of the month.

Best Way to Experience It

• Grandstand tickets in 2026 were three day Weekend Packages tied to one stand and its gate, so the stand picked was the view for practice, qualifying and both race days. Sol Verde was the cheapest of the nine stands and Main Grandstand Upper the dearest. The 2027 grandstand list is not yet announced by the organiser.
• MotoGP's 2027 hospitality packages for Portimão are two day Saturday and Sunday passes. VIP Village includes a rider Q&A, a guided paddock tour, a service road tour and a pit lane walk. The Apex packages add a two day paddock pass and a team garage visit, and Apex Grid adds grid access for the MotoGP or Moto2 race and a podium photo. Prices are not yet published.
