Start Time: Sunday, 19 October 2025, 04:00 UTC+0
Location: Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit, Victoria, Australia
The legendary Phillip Island circuit roars back to life as MotoGP’s crown jewel of the Asia-Pacific swing! Defending race winner Marc Márquez’s absence fuels an open battle royale, with Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati) and Fabio Quartararo (Yamaha) clashing for critical championship points on this treacherous 4.445km coastal ribbon. Home hero Jack Miller (Yamaha) ignites local passion, targeting redemption after a podium near-miss in 2024, while dark horse Jorge Martín (Aprilia) aims to exploit his record-breaking pace here. Phillip Island’s signature high-speed sweeps—like the iconic “Lukey Heights” and “MG Corner”—demand fearless cornering at 300km/h, where ocean gusts and sudden rain threaten to upend strategies. With title margins razor-thin and tyre degradation amplified by the abrasive tarmac, every slide through Turn 1’s “Doohan Corner” could seal a season’s fate. Witness a symphony of raw speed and tactical genius as riders dance on the edge of adhesion, where bravery meets precision under the Southern Cross!
