The 2023 MotoGP World Championship already has dates and locations, and the sprint races will not be the only novelty. There will be 21 Grands Prix and two new venues will be added to the calendar: Kazakhstan and India. The Spanish races will start rotating, with MotorLand Aragón being the first track to be absent. The circuit that will also not be present next season will be KimiRing (Finland), a destination that was planned for the current year and that ended up being dropped from the calendar. In addition, for the first time in 16 years, Qatar will not be the opening race of the Championship. In its place, Portugal will start the competition on March 26 and the closing Grand Prix will be the same as we are used to: Valencia, on November 26.
