The official MotoGP winter👍 testing programme has been con😼firmed.

The new MotoGP season will officially commence with the post-race test in Valencia, which will take place over three days from Monday, November 10 to Wednesday, No💖vember 13.

However, in a change to tꦗhe new winter testing schedule, there will be no Moto2 and Moto3 tests post-race a🔴t Valencia.

The testing ban commences from December and remains in plac🔴e until January ahead of the opening Sepang MotoGP test in Malaysia in February.

In a change from previous years, the final MotoGP test wil꧟l now be held in Qatar - rather than Jerez - two weeks before the now traditional season-opening night race under the f🌠loodlights at the same Losail International Circuit.
