The original plan was for Buriram to hold the event from 2021 to 2025, but now there is talk of the period 2022-2026.
The information was published in an article in Bangkok Post, which also reports that Traisuree Taisaranakul, deputy spokesperson for Government House, said the license to host the event for five years would still cost 900 million baht, a budget already approved by the cabinet. She also said that Dorna Sports, the owner of the MotoGP license, reiterated the company's commitment to the event, saying it would continue to strengthen Thailand's image abroad and generate substantial revenue. . But for that, we would have to wait one more year…
No official statement has yet been made on the cancellation of the race in Thailand this year by Dorna Sports.
The initial date for the Thai Grand Prix is set for October 10, a week after the Japanese GP at Motegi, while back-to-back races in Australia and Malaysia will take place from October 24 to October 31.
After the postponement, which can be considered as a cancellation, of the American tour (replaced by a second race in Qatar and one in Portimao), this first cancellation in Asia could, if confirmed, spread and spread open the door to a 2021 championship quite similar to that of 2020... unless Mandalika, in Indonesia, comes to replace the Thai Grand Prix, since this is its role on the current MotoGP calendar.
Wait and see ...
