The MotoGP Grand Prix of Assen will not take place on the scheduled date. The Dutch government has ordered the cancellation of all major events for the coming months.
Few doubts now remain about the impossibility of holding the MotoGP Grand Prix in Assen, scheduled for June 28. No major events will be allowed in the Netherlands until the beginning of September.
