Argentine MotoGP Event Postponed To November

TERMAS DE RIO HONDO, Argentina – The FIM, IRTA and Dorna Sports announced Wednesday that the Motul Argentine Grand Prix, originally scheduled for April 17-19, has been postponed.

Due to the ongoing coronavirus outbreak, the event has been rescheduled for later in the season and will now take place from Nov. 20-22.

As a result of that adjustment, the Motul Grand Prix of Valencia will shift to Nov. 27-29.

The Red Bull Grand Prix of the Americas retains its recently-announced new date of Nov. 13-15, a week before the rescheduled Motul Argentine Grand Prix.

Following those schedule changes, the MotoGP season will now begin with the Gran Premio Red Bull de España at Circuito de Jerez-Angel Nieto from May 1-3.
