Jakarta –
After months of delayed due coronavirus pandemic, MotoGP 2020 finally rolling this weekend. Get ready, MotoGP Mania hears the roar of the motor on the track.
MotoGP 2020 should have started mid-March in Qatar. But, Covid-19 terror made the world’s number one motorcycle race delayed for a long time, as did other sports.
Even this pandemic could make MotoGP in uncertainty because many hosts have finally resigned, because their country is still struggling to overcome this health crisis.
Of the 20 series that should be held, nine of them have been canceled and three are still pending. As a result, with only eight series held, Dorna as the MotoGP operator has to rack his brain to hold the race in the current conditions.
Therefore, Dorna decided to hold the first series in Europe and that without spectators. Even the number of crews coming to each series must be limited.
Europe is considered the safest place to roll out MotoGP 2020 because it can relatively suppress the corona virus transmission rate. After that, only three series will be postponed, namely Thailand, Malaysia and Argentina.
There are a total of 13 series that competed with the Spanish MotoGP so the opening at Jerez, Sunday (07/19/2020) tomorrow. Surely this MotoGP start will be awaited by the audience.
They certainly want to see how Marc Marquez defended his world title this season. Moreover, Repsol Honda has recruited his younger brother, Alex Marquez, to accompany Marc.
The strongest threat still comes from the Yamaha duo, Maverick Vinales and Valentino Rossi, and Andrea Dovizioso from Ducati. If only Fabio Quartararo could appear consistent during the race, like in qualifying, Petronas Yamaha rider could be surprising.
Whatever it is, what competition is like MotoGP 2020 will only be known after the Jerez race was held. To be sure the MotoGP mania will be happy to see races in the arena again and become entertainment in a pandemic like this.
