The country that hosts the MotoGP race at the Sachsenring circuit is Germany.
The Sachsenring is located near Hohenstein-Ernstthal and Oberlungwitz in Saxony, eastern Germany. Motorcycle racing began on the original public-road circuit in 1927, giving the venue a long history before the modern permanent track opened in the 1990s.
The German motorcycle Grand Prix returned to the Sachsenring in 1998 after a 26-year absence. The modern circuit is compact and technically demanding, with 14 corners and a pronounced downhill section. Its layout traditionally places heavy demands on the front tyre, while the left-hand corners have helped make the venue especially notable on the calendar.
A common mix-up is confusing the Sachsenring with Germany’s former Grand Prix venues, such as the Nürburgring or Hockenheimring. The race’s country is Germany because the circuit is there, even when the event is marketed internationally as the German Grand Prix.
