2 years ago By Sports Desk

The roar of engines, the thrill of speed, and the pursuit of victory – MotoGP 2024 promises to deliver all of this and more. With a record-breaking 22 rounds, exciting new additions, and the return of fan-favorite circuits, the 2024 season is set to redefine motorcycle racing. Let’s dive into all the details you need to know about MotoGP 2024.

Record-Breaking Season

MotoGP has broken its own record by scheduling a whopping 22 rounds for the 2024 season. This extended calendar means more opportunities for riders to showcase their skills and for fans to witness breathtaking races.

Qatar Grand Prix: A Thrilling Opener

The season kicks off on March 10, 2024, with the Qatar Grand Prix. The Losail International Circuit once again hosts the season opener, known for its dramatic night races under the desert sky.

Portuguese and Argentine Adventures

Following Qatar, the riders swiftly head to Europe for the Portuguese Grand Prix on April 7, 2024. This event marks a return to a familiar track that opened the 2022 calendar with a bang.

Argentina joins the action with the Argentine Grand Prix on April 14, making it a back-to-back spectacle with the Americas GP at the Circuit of the Americas (COTA) on the same date. This double-header guarantees adrenaline-pumping action for fans across the globe.

Spanish Fiesta: All Four Venues Return

Spain, a stronghold of MotoGP passion, welcomes back all four of its iconic venues. The 2024 calendar features a remarkable return to all Spanish tracks after Aragon took a brief hiatus in the 2022 season. The Spanish Grand Prix, scheduled for April 28, ensures no rotation of the Iberian events.

European Excitement: France, Catalonia, and Italy

The heart-pounding European leg of the season begins with the French Grand Prix on May 12, setting the stage for fierce battles on the legendary Le Mans Circuit. Riders then move to the Catalan Grand Prix on May 26, a thrilling back-to-back event with the Italian Grand Prix at the picturesque Mugello Circuit on June 2.

Kazakhstan’s Second Chance

MotoGP’s ambitious expansion continues as it presents a second attempt to stage the inaugural Kazakhstan Grand Prix at the Sokol circuit. Delays in circuit readiness led to the cancellation of the 2023 event, but 2024 offers another opportunity to introduce the sport to Central Asian fans.

Summer Break and Resumption

Following the Dutch Grand Prix on June 30 and the German Grand Prix on July 7, MotoGP takes a well-deserved three-week summer break. This hiatus allows riders and teams to recharge their batteries before the intense second half of the season.

British and Austrian Duels

The British Grand Prix at Silverstone on August 4 marks the resumption of the season. It’s followed by the Austrian Grand Prix on August 18, offering fans a dose of high-speed excitement.

Aragon and San Marino Return

The next back-to-back kicks off on September 1 with the return of the Aragon Grand Prix. This event, absent from the schedule in 2023, is set to rekindle the fierce competition. On September 8, riders converge at the San Marino Grand Prix, promising more thrills.

Indian Grand Prix: Triple-Header Spectacle

Despite initial suggestions of a date change, the Indian Grand Prix maintains its place on the calendar, scheduled for September 22. This event forms the first part of an exhilarating triple-header alongside Indonesia on September 29 and Japan on October 6. This sequence promises to be a pivotal moment in the championship.

Triple-Header Finale and Valencia Grand Prix

After a brief break, the final triple-header of the season begins with Australia on October 20, followed by Thailand on October 27 and Malaysia on November 3. The championship concludes with the Valencia Grand Prix on November 17, offering fans a fitting climax to an extraordinary season.

Formula 1 Clashes

MotoGP fans should be prepared for some schedule clashes with Formula 1 in 2024. Unfortunately, 11 MotoGP rounds will coincide with Formula 1 events, creating some timezone challenges for fans who enjoy both motorsport series.

Balaton Park: A New Addition

In exciting news, the new Balaton Park track in Hungary has been added to the reserve list, subject to the venue receiving homologation. This potential addition could diversify the calendar further and introduce a new chapter in MotoGP history.

Pre-season Testing

Before the official season kick-off, pre-season testing for 2024 is set to begin on February 6-8 in Malaysia, followed by two days in Qatar on February 19-20. These testing sessions will provide teams and riders with valuable insights and an opportunity to fine-tune their machines.

The 2024 MotoGP season promises to be one for the history books, with a record number of rounds, exciting locations, and fierce competition. Motorcycle racing enthusiasts can mark their calendars and wait in excitement for the next season.
