MotoGP Finally Back In Business
D
orna has announced 13
races to comprise the 2020
MotoGP World Championship
calendar after the Covid-19 pan-
demic threatened the existence
of this year's series.
With two races held per
venue aside from Catalunya,
France, Czech Republic and
Qatar (which already held its
Moto2 and Moto3 round back in
March), the abbreviated calen-
dar will be one of the shortest in
decades, with seven races being
held in Spain/Catalunya.
The possibility of holding
events outside Europe will be
assessed and confirmed before
July 31. However, the 2020 sea-
son will not finish later than the
December 13 and will comprise a
maximum of 17 events (including
the Grand Prix of Qatar).
All dates and events, as well
as the eventual attendance of
spectators, are subject to the
evolution of the pandemic and
the approval of corresponding
governments and authorities.
But at least there's now some
confirmation—we're going rac-
ing! CN
