THE MOTOGP 2024 final has been moved to a different track after the devastating floods in Valencia.

The event was set to take place in Valencia, but a last-minute change was made due to the flooding in the region.

The final Grand Prix of the season will not be raced at the Circuit de Barcelona-Cataluny in Barcelona, Spain.

MotoGP confirmed the change as the association claimed it was “owed” to the fans for the race to go ahead.

A statement read: “MotoGP can now confirm the 2024 curtain closer will be held in Barcelona.

“We will return to the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, where the World Championship will be decided, on the original dates of the season finale: the 15th to the 17th of November.

“The Grand Prix will be held in solidarity with the Community of Valencia.

“The event was previously set to take place in Valencia before the devastating flooding that has impacted the region so heavily.

“Being the last Grand Prix of the season, the sporting context the Championship is in, and the positive impact the event has, we owe it to our fans, our paddock, the sport, and Valencia to hold the event.”

The association insisted that the race will be “for” Valencia rather than in the region.

It added: “Instead of racing in Valencia, MotoGP will race for Valencia. For all those affected, and the entire Community of Valencia.

“MotoGP made the request to the authorities to race in Barcelona as it was the best possible choice.

“The track is the easiest option for fans who were already planning to attend the MotoGP season finale.

“The location and circuit are also the most efficient choice, providing a close to seamless alternative for personnel and logistics.

“The event will be organised by MotoGP „¢ and we remain committed to our mission to have a positive impact on people, place and planet wherever we race.

“In this case, racing near the Community of Valencia will also allow the paddock to put that into action even more directly.”

The final will take place on the weekend of November 15.

Jorge Martin is currently leading the standings heading into the final.

The Prima Pramac Racing star has amassed 485 points but is only leading Ducati’s Francesco Bagnaia by 461.
