Qatar MotoGP Round Postponed To November 8th, Portimão, Valenca Delayed A Week

As had been widely expected, the Qatar round of MotoGP has been rescheduled as a result of the ongoing war between US/Israel and Iran. The announcement, made today, came after F1 canceled their races in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. The Qatar round of MotoGP will now take place on November 8th, the week after the Malaysian GP at Sepang.

This move has forced MSEG (formerly Dorna) to reschedule the last two rounds of MotoGP as well. The Portuguese and Valencian rounds have been moved a week later, with the Portimão round now due to be held on November 22nd, and Valencia November 29th.
