MOTOGP LEAVES OPEN POSSIBILITY OF MOVING QATAR GRAND PRIX TO ANOTHER VENUE

MotoGP has not ruled out relocating the Qatar Grand Prix to another country due to uncertainty linked to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. The reports note that the war in the Persian Gulf—between the United States, Israel and Iran—has already affected the sporting calendar this year. MotoGP could consider a contingency approach similar to the one used by Formula 1, which moved its Bahrain race to Malaysia. While no specific alternative venue has been confirmed, the key point is that organisers are keeping relocation options open as the situation remains fluid.
