ITDC, organizer of MotoGP Indonesia 2026 (October 9-11 at Mandalika International Circuit), has opened 2,500 volunteer positions for residents of West Nusa Tenggara. Roles include marshaling, security, and crowd control across the event. Walk-in interviews run August 24-31, and ITDC has already briefed 23 surrounding villages on the program.

From what I've seen trackside, I'll say it straight: marshal depth is what decides a race's safety margin. 2,500 isn't just a number for show — that's the manpower behind flag stations and crowd control under that brutal Mandalika sun. A race where locals are woven into the operation just feels different when you're out there riding.

It says no age limit, but I wonder if the actual operations will be okay with that.

They've run events at this scale before, so they probably have the know-how by now.

Going around and briefing 23 villages is a really grounded touch, I like that.

Wait, is it unpaid volunteering? There's apparently a daily stipend but even so, sounds pretty low.

The article says stipend plus meals plus insurance, so there's at least some baseline care there.

2,500 volunteers is a massive scale — Mandalika is going all in.
