Spain is to continue to form the backbone of the MotoGP championship. After earlier announcements that the Valencia, Jerez and Motorland Aragon circuits would be organizing MotoGP rounds through 2016, today, Dorna announced that it had agreed to extend its contract with the Circuit de Catalunya (which hosts the Barcelona round of MotoGP) for the next five years. The agreement means that there will be four rounds of MotoGP in Spain through 2016, three of which are dotted in Spain's northeastern corner.
The news that the Catalunya circuit is to remain on the calendar will be welcomed by both fans and riders alike, all of whom love the circuit. The track's proximity to Barcelona - one of the most beautiful cities in the world - also adds to the attraction of the event. The fact that Dorna also has its main base in the city is another reason the circuit is favored by the series organizer.
