The Oldest Global Motorsport Championship

Motorcycle Grand Prix racing is the oldest established world championship in all of motorsport. It predates the inaugural Formula One season, cementing its status as the pinnacle of two-wheeled road racing.

While many assume car racing set the standard for international competition, motorcycle racing actually established the format first in 1949. The sport grew from grassroots races held early in the twentieth century before being unified under a single global body. Today, these riders push engineering to its absolute limits on tracks designed specifically for speed. It remains the gold standard for motorcycle innovation and professional competition.
