MotoGP will not return to Argentina next year after the April 14 'To Be Confirm🌞ed' place being held open for the event was dropped from the updaܫted schedule.

Las🅺t December a three-year deal was announced for the Termas ♊de R?o Hondo circuit to host an Argentinian MotoGP from 2013.

However on June 20th, 2012, the Spanish government advised against travel to Argentina for any teamܫs or riders sponsored by Repsol due to "safety reasons", following a dispute between the company and the Argentinean government.

With the travel warning still in place on November 18, the deadline for Dorna to officially propose the 2013 MotoGP calendar to the FIM, the event has been postponed♔ until 2014.

But just two days later, on November 20, the Spanish government informed Dorna that its advice had ch⛎anged and the travel warn🉐ing withdrawn!

However "the time for the calendar presentation had already expired and♉ therefore, there was no possibility to include a new MotoGP𒊎 event," read a statement from Dorna.

"Anyhow, Dor♑na Sports commits itself to include Gran Premio de la Rep?blica Argentina on the 2014 Calendar and onwards, to be approved by FIM subject to the homologation of the track, which presumably shall take place within the first quarter of 2013."

The last Argentinian motorcycle grand prix was held in 1999 and MotoGP has been absent from South Ameri🔥ca since the last of the Brazilian rounds in 2004.

As a result of Argentina's postponement, the opening 2013 event in Qatar will be held a week later than previ🎶ously listed, in order to reduce the gap before what is now the second round of the season at Austin, Texas.

The 2013 calendar is t🤪hus 18 rounds, the same as this season, with the new Austin ev🍨ent replacing Estoril. Jerez remains Subject to Contract.
