The International Motorcycling Federation (FIM), the International Road Racing Teams Association (IRTA), and Dorna Sports, the commercial rights holder for MotoGP, have announced the postponement of the Indian Grand Prix to 2025.
The race was initially scheduled to take place in 2024, but has been pushed back by a year due to operational considerations.
The decision was made following advice from the Government of Uttar Pradesh, where the race is set to be held at the Buddh International Circuit.
The Government of Uttar Pradesh has expressed its commitment to MotoGP and is working to ensure that the race will be a success when it returns in 2025.
The postponement will give the government more time to complete necessary preparations and ensure that the circuit is up to the required standards.
The Indian Grand Prix was first held in 2013 and was a popular event, attracting large crowds.
However, the race was dropped from the calendar in 2014 due to financial problems.
The return of the Indian Grand Prix in 2025 is a sign of the growing popularity of MotoGP in India.
The country has a large and passionate fan base for the sport, and the race is expected to be a major event on the MotoGP calendar.
The Buddh International Circuit is a world-class facility and will provide a challenging and exciting track for the riders.
