2025 MotoGP Bharat GP cancelled due to operational issues

The Bharat GP was scheduled to be held at the beginning of the 2025 season.

The 2025 MotoGP Bharat GP has been cancelled. Dorna, which holds the commercial rights, has said that “operational circumstances” forced them to call off the race. It also stated that the organisers are working to hold the event in 2026.

The Bharat GP was scheduled to be held at the beginning of the 2025 season. However, reports suggest that the local authorities were unable to secure the funds required to organize such a big event in time.

Earlier this year, MotoGP signed an agreement with the Uttar Pradesh government, to host the Grand Prix of India at the Buddh International Circuit (BIC) between 2025 and 2027.

MotoGP was first held in India in 2023. However, in 2024, the Indian round was cancelled over issues arising out of non-payment of dues by its Indian organizers.
