High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The 2008 Malaysian motorcycle Grand Prix was the penultimate round of the 2008 MotoGP Championship. It took place on the weekend of 17 -October 19, 2008 at the Sepang International Circuit. Road Racing World Championship Grand Prix is the premier championship of motorcycle road racing currently divided into three distinct classes: 125cc, 250cc and MotoGP. The first two are held with two-stroke and the last with four-stroke engines. In 2010 the 250cc was replaced by the new Moto2 600cc four- stroke class. So, after 2010 there will be one two- stroke class, 125cc, and 2 four-stroke classes: Moto2 and MotoGP. Grand Prix motorcycles are purpose- built racing machines that are neither available for purchase by the general public nor can be ridden legally on public roads. This contrasts with the various production categories of racing, such as the Superbike World Championship, that feature modified versions of road-going motorcycles available to the public.
