The2020 Spanish motorcycle Grand Prix was the second round of the2020 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season and the first round of the2020 MotoGP World Championship. It was held at theCircuito de Jerez – Ángel Nieto inJerez de la Frontera on 19 July 2020. It was initially scheduled to be held on 3 May but was moved due to theCOVID-19 pandemic.

Fabio Quartararo took his first victory in the premier class, the first for a French rider sinceRegis Laconi at the1999 Valencian Grand Prix, the first for a Yamaha satellite team, as well as the first non-Honda satellite rider to win a Grand Prix.

The originally scheduled calendar for the2020 championship was heavily affected by theCOVID-19 pandemic. Several Grands Prix were cancelled or postponed after the abortedopening round in Qatar, prompting theFédération Internationale de Motocyclisme to draft a new calendar. The start of the championship was delayed until 19 July, with theCircuito de Jerez – Ángel Nieto hosting theSpanish Grand Prix as the opening round of the championship. Organisers of the race signed a contract with Dorna Sports, the sport's commercial rights holder, to host a second round at the circuit on 26 July (a week after the first race) to be known as theAndalusian Grand Prix.^[1] The back-to-back Spanish races would mark the first time that a country hosts back-to-back races in the same season. This would also mark the first time in the sport's history that the same venue and circuit layout would have hosted back-to-back World Championship races and the first time that a MotoGP race weekend was heldbehind closed doors.

Twenty two riders representing eleven teams entered the race.Álex Márquez andBrad Binder made their competitive debuts withRepsol Honda Team andRed Bull KTM Factory Racing respectively, andIker Lecuona started his first full season withRed Bull KTM Tech3 having previously raced for them at the2019 Valencian Grand Prix.^[2]
