Tech3 CEO Guenther Steiner explained why MotoGP's new commercial agreement remains structured around a fixed sum rather than profit sharing. While all five manufacturers had sought a share of the profits, the new 2027-2031 deal was ultimately settled at a fixed amount of roughly €8 million per team per year.

I find this outcome interesting. Manufacturers wanted revenue-linked terms like F1, but MotoGP's SEG held firm on a fixed amount. Over here, it's read as a choice that values predictability over variability. A fixed sum of just under 8 million euros per team per year reflects solid pragmatism. Steiner's line, 'everybody wants more,' really captures the essence of the negotiation.

Whether €8 million is a lot or a little feels like a borderline call once you factor in team operating costs.

Isn't it unusual that the figures are already set now, for a contract that only starts in 2027?

Long-term deals normally take years to negotiate, and locking things in early matters for the stability of the whole promotion.

Steiner's been known for blunt talk going back to his F1 days, and this explanation is characteristically clear too.

All 5 manufacturers wanted a profit share, but it ended up being pushed through as a fixed fee anyway — shows how much leverage the organizers have.

A fixed amount makes it easier for teams to plan their finances, that's a real benefit, and Steiner's explanation nails it.

€8 million a year fixed per team is serious money, but I guess it trades profit-sharing for stability.
