Automotodrom Brno

Automotodrom Brno is the company operating the motor racing circuit, the Masaryk Ring. It was formed in 1994 and has its headquarters directly in the control tower of the racing track.

The Masaryk Ring’s tradition stretches back as far as 1930, when an open-air track was
constructed running along the main roads on the outskirts of a growing Brno. Since 1965 the Masaryk Ring has been the traditional host of the most prestigious motorcycle championship in the world – the Road Bike Grand Prix. The current Masaryk Ring dates from the years 1985-1987 and is a top-class racing circuit meeting the strictest criteria for hosting pestigious world motorbike races.


Automotodrom Brno hosts several world championships – most importantly the World Road Bike Championship (MotoGP) and the World Superbike Championship. The Masaryk Ring is regularly written into the calendar of the International Championship of the Czech Republic for automobile circuit competitions as well as the motorbike championship. The company regularly hosts special ocassions for the public – circuit open days, in-line skating, cycling, public trackdays for cars and motorbikes and a course for safe motorbike riding at the motorbike driving school.
