MotoGP: Good news for Ricardo Tormo racetrack, December 5 will open again

It was October 29 when the Valencia region was hit and overwhelmed by flooding, the most violent since 1957. Among the areas devastated by the weather event was also the one around the Ricardo Tormo circuit located in the municipality of Cheste, which, on paper, on the weekend of November 16-17 was supposed to host the last round of the MotoGP World Championship and last Tuesday the pre-season tests in view of the 2025 MotoGP.

As known, also as a result of the willingness of the riders, Pecco Bagnaia above all, not to run where people were fighting for their lives and had just lost everything, the event was moved to Montmelo, where there was also the first taste of the new year.

Similarly, the Valencia track was supposed to see the Formula E single-seaters take center stage in a test session on the second weekend of November, but for the same reasons, the dress rehearsals dedicated to the electric cars were moved to the track in Jarama, Madrid.

After all these moves, however, good news has finally arrived. On December 5, the gates of the facility will open again, although access will only be possible through a secondary gate, as the main one is still being rebuilt.

As reported by the racetrack's official website, the engines will be reignited thanks to Bike Promotion, a German company that organizes helmet-and-suit days for novice or somewhat more experienced riders.
