Barcelona will host the final race of the MotoGP season next week in place of flood-hit Valencia, organisers Dorna announced on Tuesday.

After initially wanting to run the 2024 MotoGP finale at Valencia as planned on November 15-17, MotoGP made the right decision to cancel the event at the Ricardo Tormo circuit. However a replacement is scheduled for the same weekend and it looks like Barcelona will be the destination of choice.

Barcelona has been hit with red weather warnings as flooding impacts the city, with MotoGP set to head there in two weeks to close the 2024 season. The Catalan city has been hit by flooding this morning (Monday 4 November), and a red alert warning of ‘Extreme Danger’ has been issued.

If MotoGP do end the season in Barcelona it would be their second visit to the circuit in 2024. Circuit de Catalunya held the seventh round of the 2024 MotoGP season. In this round, Aleix Espargaro won the Sprint Race before Francesco Bagnaia won the Grand Prix on Sunday.

The recent flooding in Valencia has forced MotoGP to move its 2024 season finale to the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, a track which suits both contenders.

The 2024 Valencia GP is canceled due the the devastating floods in the region. Circuit de Catalunya-Barcelona will host the final MotoGP, November 15-17.
