An absolute domination by Pecco Bagnaia in Austria: winning both the Sprint and the race, putting him back on top of the 2024 MotoGP World Championship standings, surpassing Jorge Martin.

The History of MotorLand Aragón
The Aragón circuit, officially known as MotorLand Aragón, is located in Alcañiz, in the province of Teruel, Spain. Inaugurated in 2009, the circuit was designed by the renowned German architect Hermann Tilke, in collaboration with the famous Formula 1 driver Pedro de la Rosa. Its construction was motivated by the need to create a versatile and modern facility, entering the MotoGP World Championship calendar in 2010 as a replacement race.
The circuit quickly earned a good reputation for its technical and challenging layout, featuring fast corners, altitude changes, and one of the longest straights in the championship. MotorLand Aragón has now become a staple on the MotoGP calendar, also hosting Superbike events and other secondary motorsport categories.
