CN MotoGP Drops Valencia Post- Season Test T he traditional Valencia MotoGP post-season test will be axed for the 2020 season as part of a further slimming down of available test time. Next year, there will be just the Qatar and Sepang three-day tests, four days of in-season testing and just two post-season tests. This year, there will be just the Jerez test on November 19- 20 at the conclusion of the season. That also means the traditional mid-season Brno test, where Yamaha traditionally debuts its new bike for next season, is off, too. That leaves just the Monday tests at Jerez and Barcelona, along with a two-day Misano test on September 15-16. There will be a test at the new Kymiring in Fin- land in June ahead of that venue's debut in the championship. CN 2020 MotoGP test schedule: Sepang ..... February 2-4 (shakedown) Sepang .....
