The new world championship season may be delayed, MXGP boss David Luongo has revaled.

“For 2021, the target to host public is still in our main goals. For this reason, in the upcoming days, we will communicate on the calendar of the 2021 season and it will probably receive some adjustments to start the season a bit later and to give us more flexibility in order to finally organise Grand Prix with public,” he said in an interview in OTOR magazine.

At the moment, the first race is set for Oman on April 3, with round two in Italy on April 25,. then Portugal on May 16. This is already at least a month later than the regular start, as the 2019 season was delayed due to Covid.
