This week, the cancellation of the MotoGP ArgentinaGP, originally scheduled as the third round of the season in early April, was announced. Now, there are concerns about two more rounds that may not take place: Kazakhstan and India.
The Kazakh race, set for June, was initially planned for the previous year but was postponed to 2024 as the Sokol circuit was not completed. According to GPOne.com, there is no update on the progress of the construction, raising doubts about the possibility of it being finished on time. As for India, scheduled for September, which hosted the MotoGP for the first time last year, there are rumors of difficulties that could jeopardize its return this year.
If the Kazakhstan and India GPs cannot take place, there are two possibilities: either the calendar would be reduced to 19 Grand Prix events, or the reserve Hungarian GP would be added. However, the Balaton Park Circuit still lacks homologation – a process that may not be very problematic, considering that the World Superbike Championship has a round scheduled there at the end of August.
