In an unexpected twist to the 2024 MotoGP season, the Valencia finale has officially been moved to Barcelona following catastrophic flooding which left the Ricardo Tormo Circuit in ruins. Aerial footage shows the circuit’s infrastructure in disarray, with the main access road washed out and surrounding areas submerged, making access virtually impossible and forcing MotoGP organizers to make an urgent decision to move the climactic event from the season.
The damage around the Valencia circuit is devastating, with widespread flooding affecting the area, tragically causing loss of life and displacing many residents. With essential infrastructure destroyed, it became clear that the Ricardo Tormo Circuit would not be ready to host the MotoGP finale, no matter how much repair efforts were made.
The final round will now take place at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, where the 2024 MotoGP champion will be crowned. The sudden change presented logistical challenges for teams and fans, but officials are committed to delivering an unforgettable conclusion to the season.
In the meantime, the MotoGP community is rallying together to support Valencia residents, with teams like Aspar leading fundraising efforts to help those affected by this disaster. This unprecedented move marks not only a change of venue but also a powerful reminder of the strength of nature and the resilience of the running community in the face of unexpected adversity.
