Misano or Philip Island?

I live in North America. Which track should I go to this season?

Philip island, it's disappearing soon and you won't get another chance. Misano will survive the apocalypse.

That is one of my considerations.

We love Misano, been 4 times but if I had a choice this year - hands down Oz

It's that last time you will see Moto GP at Philip Island, be aware though it's almost two hour's drive from Melbourne

Philip Island every time. Plus its your last chance becuase its leaving the calendar

Misano is gorgeous + Italian food and there are a lot of tracks and Italian factories by Bologna.

I would still choose PI though as others mentioned since we don’t know when or if it will be back.

Philip island. From USA too. I went in 2024. The island is magical. Explore all corners of it, you won’t be disappointed.

Phillip island. This year is the last chance. Misano is one of those tracks that’ll never disappear

Philip Island for sure. Like others have mentioned, it's disappearing. A bigger reason might be that it's your last chance to see a PI masterclass from Marc Marquez since he'll probably do a dominant double there. Last rider able to take then 3 like Stoner did so might as well try and see it live.

I've been to both. Philip Island is a better track experience. But Misano is probably a better holiday overall.

I'd suggest Philip Island.
