Pertamina Mandalika Circuit
The first street circuit in Grand Prix motorcycle racing since Brno last raced as one in 1986. Seventeen corners, unusually right-hand-heavy (11 right, 6 left) — Michelin reinforces the right side of rear tyres specifically for this track. Abrasive new asphalt and severe heat/humidity have been recurring, well-documented issues since it joined the calendar in 2022. New asphalt and surface treatments have been a recurring pre-race story here, as organisers work to address the grip and abrasion issues riders flagged in the venue's early seasons.

Zone and stand structure, checked 3 Aug 2026. No prices — those move, and we do not publish one until it has been checked and dated.
What a Pertamina Mandalika Circuit weekend actually costs
Seats we could actually find on sale at Pertamina Mandalika Circuit ran from IDR 280000 up to IDR 1225000 (general admission through to the priciest grandstand, not counting hospitality or Paddock Club) — checked 3 Aug 2026. Ticket prices move constantly and this is not every seat at the circuit, so treat it as a rough budget, not a quote. A typical return flight from a mid-priced European hub, booked around two months out, runs about €800 a person; add roughly €293 a person for three nights in a mid-range hotel over the race weekend. These are grounded, dated estimates, not live quotes.

Getting there
Lombok International Airport sits close to the circuit within the Mandalika resort area, with DAMRI shuttle buses and metered taxis available at the terminal. The circuit sits inside a purpose-built tourism zone on Lombok's south coast, so most visitor infrastructure — hotels, restaurants, the airport itself — was developed alongside the track rather than predating it.
Where to sit
Ticketed zones are lettered A, B, C, E, G, H, I, J and K, each with big-screen and fan-zone access bundled into a 3-day general admission pass. Grandstands A, B, C, J and K are sold as Premium; D, E, F, G, H and I as Regular — B and C sit in the paddock area itself, while F and G climb the ‘360°' hill that gives a wraparound view unusual for a street circuit.
