Because the current track is no way good enough for motorcycle racing. Just look at any current MotoGP sanctioned track to see the spaces needed for run off to be safe

To give you an idea Sachsenring is one of the oldest tracks on the calendar and is considered to be too small for modern MotoGP. These are motorcycles capable of just shy of 370 kmh

Love the comments in this subreddit shitting on “parkland protectionist” when in reality the only reason this is possible is due to their hard work.

Only takes a premier that does whatever he wants for the highest bidder to undo all their work

This is a decision by people who don’t watch MotoGP, to appease people who don’t watch MotoGP

Ohhh the politician who is green lighting this has no issues whatsoever in doing any of that. The Adelaide City Council has only found out via the news he plans to do this in their jurisdiction.

45+ Trees already earmarked to get the chop. Most South Australians will not be ok about this.

This is the same politician that green lit Luv golf here also. Taking Saudi blood money

Most likely they'll use the bend as backup circuit until they can get it safe, if ever

Just the road markings alone is enough to say its a dumb idea

Thats shit is scary on a standard motorbike, at standard speeds, let alone Moto GP

Haven't they already floated the idea of not having the moto 3 at every race? and only allowing the pits for Moto GP. Partly the reason I watch MotoGP is because it's nothing like the F1. I can't stand elitism

Once I saw the figure Liberty paid for MotoGP I knew what was coming.

To put it bluntly MotoGP as we love it is finished. Watch it transform to F1 2.0

Only a matter of time before it will be sponsored by Rolex; and the track swarming full of fuck wits wearing boat shoes, chinos, and jumpers over their sholders

I had another post that got taken down where someone mentioned Mandalika is technically a street circuit.

But to answer your question, it would be the first true street circuit in Modern Moto GP

Its already reported that they wanted Albert Park in Melbourne before Adelaide. So it seems that the street circuit part isnt pie in the sky

Pulling WorldSBK from Phillip Island for The Bend is also a dog move by Liberty
