Kaurna Traditional Owners are furious after ground-disturbing work for the 2027 MotoGP in Adelaide began without their consultation, sparking a major heritage dispute. The Kaurna Yerta Aboriginal Corporation says they were never involved before contractors started drilling, despite the Aboriginal Heritage Act requiring such input. Chair Tim Agius slammed the lack of respect for Kaurna heritage, calling it “over it” and demanding Traditional Owners be included from day one. The Motor Sport Board claims consultants were involved, but KYAC insists they weren’t consulted — and that proper legal processes may have been ignored. KYAC is now demanding urgent meetings with state ministers to fix the oversight, while the Board pledges to strengthen its relationship with the Kaurna community and comply with the law. The MotoGP street circuit, set for November 2027, is expected to be unveiled in July.
