Askume Sep 19 – MotoGP will be held in Hungary for the first time since 1992. To this end, we have reached an agreement with the Balaton Park circuit, which will host the race from next season, organiser Dorner said on Thursday.
After the first race in Hungary in 1990 and the second in 1992, the top-flight event will return to the central European country with a provisional date set for the weekend of August 22-24, 2025.

The 2025 season is scheduled to begin with the Thai Grand Prix in March.
