Also proposed is a WorldSBK round at the venue, to be held on the 2nd of August in place of the Oschersleben round which can’t take place due to Germany’s mass-gathering restrictions that will still be active.

Once authorisation from the Spanish government has been given, the three events will be proposed to the FIM for inclusion on their respective calendars.

The first MotoGP event would be the Grand Prix of Spain, becoming the season opener for the MotoGP class, and the second would be the Grand Prix of Andalusia.
