2025 MotoGP Indian Grand Prix already cancelled

The competent institutions of the MotoGP The FIM, IRTA and Dorna have just confirmed a new postponement of the Indian Grand Prix.

Initially scheduled for last week, in place of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix which acted as a replacement, the event was cancelled due to the region's inability to ensure the proper holding of the meeting.

It had then been officially confirmed, and on several occasions, that the Indian Grand Prix would be part of the discipline's next campaign, with an inclusion at the start of the future MotoGP calendar.

It will not happen after all. The return of the Indian GP has been postponed by a year, for the same "operational circumstances" that had been at the origin of its cancellation in 2024. Inaugurated by the premier category of motorcycle speed racing in 2023, the Buddh should - if all goes well - return to the program for the 2026 season.

“Both MotoGP and InvestUP are working hard to return to the Buddh International Circuit. With a world-class event. We are committed to confirming India as a destination for global sporting events.” apologizes the official announcement.

It remains to be seen whether this announcement is not yet another bad joke in a season where the management of events has been catastrophic on many occasions – with the cancellation of three rounds along the way – which has posed enormous logistical problems for the main players in the discipline, namely the drivers and teams.

Let us now hope that the Hungarian Grand Prix on the new Balaton Park circuit, already cancelled this year due to a delay in the homologation work, and that of the Czech Republic, in Brno, do not suffer the same fate as the events that the discipline is trying to organise in Kazakhstan and India.
