Jerez postpones a race but MotoGP not at-risk

Torrential rain in the area of Spain brought back worrying memories of the situation in Valencia last year, which caused the MotoGP season-finale to be moved to Barcel꧂ona.

💎However, despite the problems at the Jerez track caused by the weather, there is not expected to be any postponement of next month’s MotꦚoGP round.

The Spanish Superbike 🤡Championship’s opening round is not the only event at the Jerez circuit to be postponed, but it is the most high-profile.

This flooded parts of the track and caused structura꧟l damage to other areas.

Turns 7, 8 and 11 are overrun by mud, water🐻 and gravel. The asphalt was damaged at Turn 13 (named after Jorge Lorenzo).

The mayor of Jerez, María José García-Pelayo, said: "We know that in certain corners there has bꦡeen damage to the asphalt, but not to the track.

“What we have been able to verify are defects in the outer area of t🤡he curves, as welꦰl as inside some buildings.

"Aꦆction is being taken as quickly as possible in the circuit and in the difꦫferent rural neighborhoods and in Nuevas Jarilla.

“A major cleaning has to be done🌺 because, once the water has been rem💝oved, a lot of mud has remained."

He added about next month’s MotoGP round: "For the peace of mind of the fans, the Jerez Circuit guarantees that these works that are being undertaken guarantee that the Spanish G🐭rand Prix will be held as scheduled.

"The Circuito de Jerez-Ángel Nieto has a💎lready put all the ꦉhuman and material resources at its disposal to resume the activity as soon as possible.”
