Brno Circuit Track Map

Use this handy track map image to plan your trip as best you can. You can download the image or take a screenshot to have it to hand during the Grand Prix weekend.

🗺️ Getting to the Brno Circuit

The Brno Circuit is just outside the city of – you guessed it – Brno. One thing international travellers are usually surprised by is the distance form the Czech capital of Prague. Although Brno is within striking distance, it is actually closer to Vienna than Prague.

The circuit is more than two hour’s drive (almost 200km) from Prague, while it sits around 150km from Vienna. Though, the drive takes about the same amount of time.

✈️ Flying to Brno for the Czech MotoGP

There are direct flights from various European cities directly to Brno, simplifying the journey substantially for many international visitors.

Direct flights leave from London (Stansted), Milan, Rome and Malaga.

🚌 Free Shuttle Bus

During the Czech MotoGP, a special shuttle bus (line C) will operate from the Nemocnice Bohunice transit hub to the Masaryk Circuit.

You can also use the circular route P operating between Automotodrom Brno – Popůvky – Žebětín.

Both shuttle lines are free of charge.
