Deal struck to keep Grand Prix of Portugal on MXGP schedule until 2024
By Team TMX on 8th Apr 22
A new deal has been announced that will ensure that Agueda will continue to feature on the MXGP calendar until 2024, extending its history with the FIM Motocross World Championship that dates back to the mid-1980s.
Infront Moto Racing has agreed on a contract extension with Actib that will see the Grand Prix of Portugal part of the MXGP calendar for another two years.
With its distinctive orange dirt, the MXGP of Portugal in Agueda has been part of the FIM Motocross World Championship since 1985 and since then has hosted 23 amazing Grands Prix, including that of last weekend which saw incredible victories from Red Bull GASGAS Factory Racings Jorge Prado in MXGP and Red Bull KTM Factory Racings Tom Vialle in MX2, as well as the first MXGP podium of Standing Construct Husqvarna Factory Racings Brian Bogers who made his first appearance on the box since 2017.
There was plenty to celebrate, as the Portuguese Grand Prix made its return after two enforced seasons away, and the support received by the local community and the fans made for an even bigger and better event than seen before.
