The Finnish motorcycle Grand Prix was part of the FIM Grand Prix motorcycle racing championship from 1962 to 1982. It was held at the Tampere Circuit in 1962 and 1963 before moving to the Imatra Circuit. Giacomo Agostini won the most Finnish Grands Prix with ten 500cc victories and seven 350cc victories. In July 2016, it was announced the Grand Prix would return on the new Kymi Ring circuit.

After a 5-year contract was agreed, to start with a scheduled event in 2021, this was cancelled on 14 May 2021 due to COVID-19.{{cite news|title=Styrian GP added to 2021 calendar as Finnish GP is cancelled|url=https://www.motogp.com/en/news/2021/05/14/styrian-gp-added-to-2021-calendar-as-finnish-gp-is-cancelled/372345|date=14 May 2021|access-date=14 May 2021|website=MotoGP.com|publisher=Dorna}} The next anticipated event for 2022 was cancelled on 25 May 2022, due to incomplete homologation works at the track and the risks associated with the geopolitical situation in the region concerning the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.{{cite web |url=https://www.motogp.com/en/news/2022/05/25/grand-prix-of-finland-postponed-to-2023/421737 |work=motogp.com |date=25 May 2022 |accessdate= 25 May 2022 |title=Grand Prix of Finland postponed to 2023}} The MotoGP 2023 provisional race calendar was announced in late September 2022, without the Finnish Grand Prix.[https://www.motogp.com/en/news/2022/09/30/2023-motogp-calendar-countries-circuits-dates/432916 2023 MotoGP calendar: countries, circuits & dates] motogp.com, Retrieved 30 September 2022
