Two sporting worlds collide as MotoGP™ prepares for its biggest season yet, with the season opener set to feature the appearance of a very special guest.
When the 2023 MotoGP™ season opens, a new era will begin and the weekend is already guaranteed to go down in MotoGP™ history. An action-packed schedule is planned as the sport returns to the track for its biggest season yet, and this will include a very special VIP appearance during the event, not once, but twice!
By special invitation, Ralf Schumacher, a multiple F1 race winner, will perform demonstration laps at the wheel of his Formula 1 BMW Williams 2003, with a run on Saturday at 11:45 a.m. and another on Sunday between the Moto2™ race and the MotoGP™ race. The car is the chassis driven by Ralf Schumacher to victory at the Nürburgring and Magny-Cours in 2003, one of the most successful seasons of his ten-year career in four-wheel motorsport's elite.
The Williams FW25 is part of the VES Formula 1 collection. This is an original chassis fitted with a BMW V10 P83 engine rebuilt in 2003. Reaching up to 19 rpm and producing over 300 horsepower, the car will only add to the spectacle as the MotoGP ™ is gearing up to introduce our very own 900 heroes ready to battle it out in 22.
If you feel the need for speed, don't miss out on following the Grande Premio TISSOT de Portugal from March 24 to 26, with more MotoGP™ than ever, and very special guests!
