The Barcelona circuit in Catalunya Spain will host the final grand prix of this year's MotoGP. The Venue was chosen as the planned Valencia city was severely hit by floods and many people died and many displaced. There was so much confusion in choosing the final race host as Qatar, and Barcelona came under the radar. Finally, Barcelona was chosen as the final venue of this year’s MotoGP race. The city already hosted the Spanish Grand Prix in the middle of 2024. It is the nearest venue to Valencia city and was chosen, as many Moto2 and Moto3 teams had logistic and financial problems if moved away from Spain for the final race.

The Barcelona GP will decide the 2024 MotoGP world champion. Jorge Martin is leading the championship and the reigning champion Francesco Bagnaia is 24 points behind the Spanish rider.
