Already postponed from June to September, the inaugural Kazakhstan MotoGP round 🅺has been officially canc𓆉elled and replaced by a second visit to Misano.

Sokol thus becomes the third event to drop off the planned 2024 MotoGP calendar after Argentin🃏a and India. India was the event Kazakhst🌳an had been pencilled in to replace, on September 20-22.

'Operational a🀅nd logistical issues arising from the earlier flooding across the region have rendered the event impossible to hold in 2024,' read a statement from the FIM, IRTA ෴and Dorna Sports.

But the world championship will still have 20 rounds with Misano ge𝐆tting a 🦩second MotoGP event on the planned Kazakhstan date.

The additional Misano round will be known as the Emilia Romagna MotoGP, reviving♒ a title used for ꦐrepeat events at the circuit during Covid.

The calendar change means Misano will host the San Marino MotoGP (round 13) as planned on September 6-8, followed by an official post-race test on September 9th and a weekend off. The new Emilia Romagna event (round 14)♔ will then take place on Sep𒐪tember 20-22.

The🐼 first of the ꦐflyaway rounds, in Indonesia, starts just five days later in Mandalika.

Hunওgary's Balaton Park Circuit was listed as a su✃rprise 'Reserve Event' for the 2024 MotoGP season but appears not to have been an option to replace any cancelled rounds.
