This year, MotoGP will have a record of 22 Grand Prix races. More countries are interested in hosting the championship, while there is also talk of a possible second round in the United States of America. However, one thing seems certain: there will not be any further expansion of the calendar.
This was guaranteed by Dorna’s CEO, Carmelo Ezpeleta, quoted by the newspaper Marca: ‘The limit is 22 Grand Prix races because we believe it is fair and it is the agreement we have with the manufacturers and teams. Honestly, I don’t think we should have more races, but having less wouldn’t be right either‘.
Spain has four rounds on the calendar, more than any other country, but Ezpeleta admitted that this is not a situation that will last much longer: ‘In Spain, we have an agreement with the possibility of rotation. This year, they will all be there, but after 2027, I don’t think we can maintain four Grand Prix races in Spain‘
