The deal provides stability both on and off the circuit and establishes the sporting, technical and commercial direction of MotoGP's next era.

For the championship, the announcement represents far more than contract extensions.

It confirms that every current factory believes in the long-term future of MotoGP and shares a common vision for continuing the sport's global growth.

The agreement covers the 2027–2031 period and creates a foundation designed to balance technological innovation, close competition and commercial development while maintaining MotoGP's position as the world's premier motorcycle racing category.

Negotiations involved MotoGP Group, the Motorcycle Sports Manufacturers Association (MSMA) and the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM), with all parties reaching unanimous agreement after months of discussions.

Alongside the manufacturers' commitment, MotoGP also confirmed that the championship has reached principal terms with its current teams for the same period, with further details expected to be announced in the near future.

Beyond guaranteeing manufacturer participation, the agreement also outlines continued collaboration on improving technical regulations, sporting formats and rider safety.

Those discussions are expected to shape the introduction of MotoGP's next generation of machinery while preserving the close racing that has become a hallmark of recent seasons.

The long-term commitment also gives manufacturers confidence to continue investing in rider development, engineering programs and future technologies, while allowing MotoGP to expand its international audience through increased fan engagement and commercial initiatives.

For supporters, the announcement provides certainty that the championship's biggest names will remain on the grid for years to come.

In an era where long-term manufacturer participation cannot always be taken for granted in international motorsport, MotoGP has delivered a powerful statement of stability.

With every current factory united behind the championship's future, the stage is now set for a new chapter that aims to combine innovation, fierce competition and global growth as MotoGP prepares for the next generation of racing beginning in 2027.
