Goa Street Circuit to host Round 4 of Indian Racing League
Race to be streamed on JioHotstar, Star Sports Select 2
The Goa round of the Indian Racing League was initially slated to be held in November 2025. Following protests, series organiser RPPL (Racing Promotions Private Limited) announced that Round 4 would be pushed to early-2026 at a new location.
RPPL has now confirmed that the race has been moved to Manohar International Airport. The track itself will be 2.064km long and feature 12 turns. “Street circuits represent the next frontier for Indian motorsport. They bring the action closer to fans, create unforgettable experiences, and transform how people engage with the sport. The upcoming round in Goa marks an important step in this journey, as we take high quality racing into a new state,” said Akhilesh Redy, Chairman and Managing Director of RPPL.
Tickets for the race will be available on the District by Zomato app. For those who can’t make it to the track, sessions will be streamed live on JioHotstar, in addition to a TV broadcast on Star Sport Select 2.
There’s also a new Navi Mumbai street circuit in the works for the Indian Racing League finale. This, too, has been postponed and revised dates will be announced in the coming weeks.
Initially, Goa and Navi Mumbai were supposed to host races for both, the Indian Racing League as well as F4 India. However, due to the delays, the final two rounds of the F4 India were held at the Madras International Circuit. This means the two new street circuits will only host the Indian Racing League races.
Indian Racing League format
Six city-based teams are competing in the Indian Racing League this season, with team owners including John Abraham, Sourav Ganguly, Kichcha Sudeepa, and more. It’s a one-make series, so all racers drive a Wolf GB08 Thunder single-seater. Each team has to field a mix of Indian and international talent, including one female racer.
After the first three rounds, Arjun Kapoor’s team Speed Demons Delhi currently leads the standings. But they’re just one point ahead of Naga Chaitanya’s Hyderabad Blackbirds. Kichcha’s Kings Bengaluru is third overall, 10 points off the lead.
