A new and up-to-the-minute race track is being designed in Qiddiya to host Formula 1, but the MotoGP World Championship is also in the sights of the Qiddiya Investment Company, with CEO Mike Reininger explaining that the goal is to host a variety of major international motorsport events.
“We’re building the facilities so that we can ultimately host the biggest and the best motorsports events in all categories. And Grade 1 is, as you know, synonymous with F1, so we’re hopeful that that comes to pass for us. Our project in Qiddiya is on pace for a very large first phase offering, and that’ll be ready at the beginning of 2023.”

At present, MotoGP has only one round in the Middle East, in Qatar. The Lusail track is the only one that hosts night races, with no nation before having hosted a race in the GCC. The interest in hosting the championship has grown in recent years, with several countries now interested.
