MUGELLO MotoGP RACE NOW CANCELLED

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

The Gran Premio d’Italia Oakley #motogp race at #mugello in Italy that was originally due to take place on June 14 has been cancelled.

The FIM, IRTA and Dorna Sports announced the news today about the previously ‘postponed/ to be confirmed’ #event due to the ongoing Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic.

The spectacular Autodromo Internazionale del #mugello is famed for delivering some incredible races, and always in front of one of the most passionate and vibrant crowds of the season. The track hosted its first MotoGP™ #event in 1976 and became a permanent fixture on the calendar in 1991, making 2020 the first time in nearly 30 years that the Tuscan track will not host a Grand Prix.

Paolo Poli, CEO of #mugello Circuit, said: “Despite the communal effort made to find a practical solution, the impossibility of staging an #event that is open to spectators, as well as the difficulties that have arisen from this exceptional situation, have not allowed us to find a new date for the Italian Grand Prix.

“I would like to thank all of our fans who have supported and encouraged us during these months, and invite them back to #mugello in 2021 for what will be, as always, one of the most iconic events of the season.”

Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of Dorna Sports, said: “It is with a heavy heart that we announce the cancellation of #mugello. Sadly, we were not able to find a solution to the logistical and operational issues resulting from the pandemic and rearranged calendar to enable us to visit the venue this season. It is a great loss as #mugello is one of the most beautiful circuits in the world and one we are very proud to call the home of the Italian Grand Prix.

“On behalf of Dorna, I would like to thank the fans for the understanding and patience they have shown as we wait for the situation to improve. We very much look forward to returning to #mugello next season for another stunning weekend of #racing.”
