The final race of the 2024 MotoGP season is set to take place in Barcelona, ​​after the Valencia round was cancelled due to the severe consequences of flooding in the region. This information was revealed by Carmelo Ezpeleta, sporting director of Dorna, during the Malaysian Grand Prix. Ezpeleta said that the Barcelona circuit was the best choice to host the event. He told Sky that discussions are already underway with local authorities to obtain official confirmation. He expects an official announcement to be made in the next 48 hours.

At the moment, the focus is mainly on the situation in Valencia and not so much on MotoGP itself. Ezpeleta stressed that work is underway to ensure that the Barcelona Grand Prix takes place on the same dates as previously scheduled, from November 15 to 17. The aim is to ensure a high-quality event and, at the same time, provide support to Valencia in overcoming this difficult situation. The priority now is to ensure that the MotoGP can conclude successfully, despite the adversity.

The choice of Barcelona as the venue for the final race of the season marks a significant change in the MotoGP calendar, highlighting how unforeseen events can affect motorsports. Dorna is taking all necessary measures to ensure that the Grand Prix runs smoothly and in the best possible way, while also seeking to restore the normal flow of the competition.

In this context, fans and enthusiasts of the MotoGP can continue to follow the developments and prepare for what promises to be an exciting race in Barcelona. The Dorna team is determined to ensure a season finale that lives up to the expectations of the fans and riders. The next few hours will be crucial to definitively define the situation and confirm the location of the last GP of the year.
