One of the founding fathers of the Barcelona-Catalunya circuit, Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of Dorna, has been one of the main characters of the presentation of the MotoGP Gran Premi de Catalunya and after 33 years the creature they created to be a permanent installation of reference in the world has undergone a remodeling that has returned it to its place.
“I want to thank the Circuit for the effort it is making to modernize and for trying to improve year after year, both in terms of its facilities and organization,” he commented in his official speech.
Then, in a huddle with the press, Dorna’s CEO addressed high-profile issues such as the possibility that the Indian GP will not be held this year and the move of the Kazakhstan GP to a new date.
“With India we are there, it is one of the things we have to look at. In these days a decision will be made. We cannot take long: next week or the following week, at most,” Ezpeleta explained about that appointment of 20 -22 September currently in the air. In a perfect world they would try to take advantage of that date which would leave the Indian GP free to move the Kazakhstan GP which was postponed due to a humanitarian emergency after the spring floods. “We have to see where we relocate Kazakhstan; in the coming days we will know something,” he certified.
Ezpeleta is convinced that MotoGP is experiencing a great moment of luxury in 2024 with the battles seen in the last races: “I still hope that next year will be better, but every year we try to be better better than before and moment. Proud of our drivers and the factories and teams competing in the World Championship today, and I believe it is the result of the work we all put together for many years.
The recovery of Marc Márquez as a star of the championship is another plus: “I have no doubt. Márquez is one of the most important drivers in history. I believe that in recent years the injuries in the year of the pandemic where there was Honda It also stopped due to the pandemic.
And he experienced that. But Marquez never left.”
