KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 2 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim congratulated and thanked all staff, organisers, and motorsports fans for successfully hosting the 2026 Malaysian Motorcycle Grand Prix (GP), which ended yesterday at the Sepang International Circuit (SIC).

In a post on his official Facebook page, Anwar described this year’s edition as thrilling and vibrant, featuring fierce competition among the world’s top riders and memorable moments throughout the event.

“Congratulations to all winners and participating riders. Thank you also to all personnel, organisers, volunteers, and fans for their effort and support in making it successful.

“May the excitement and spirit of motorsports such as MotoGP continue to inspire more young people to fly the Malaysian flag high! See you again at Sepang,” he said.

The Prime Minister also said he met with MotoGP Sports Entertainment Group chief executive officer Carmelo Ezpeleta to exchange views on the sport’s development and its potential to raise Malaysia’s international standing.

“We also walked around the track, greeting several riders and personnel who worked tirelessly to ensure this edition of MotoGP ran smoothly and vibrantly,” he said.

Anwar said that beyond the racing action at Sepang, the event should be leveraged for broader economic spillovers, including boosting tourism, creating business opportunities, and driving the local economy.

“This ultimately brings Malaysia closer to motorsports fans around the globe,” he added.
