The 2024 MotoGP has announced its calendar for the 2024 season which will see the World Championship comprising of record-breaking 22 Grands Prix. In welcome news for Indian fans, the Indian GP has been retained on the calendar, subject to its contract. The season will kick off under the floodlights in Lusail in Qatar on March 10, with Valencia bringing the curtain down on the campaign at Circuit Ricardo Tormo on November 17.
2024 will be a landmark year as MotoGP celebrates the 75th anniversary of motorcycle Grand Prix racing. The sport would also take major steps to complete a transition towards 100% sustainable fuel. As per regulations, from 2024 fuel must be a minimum of 40% of non-fossil origin before that rises to 100% by 2027. The 2024 calendar would retain the regionalised nature, with races grouped geographically and along routes which can increase efficiency as freight and personnel are moved all around the world.

About the author
As a passionate sports romantic, I immerse myself in the captivating worlds of Cricket, Football, and Basketball, finding in each a unique tapestry of human drama and narrative. Beyond mere wins and losses, I perceive sports as powerful conduits for storytelling, rich with emotion, struggle, and triumph. Through my writing, I channel this fervor, delving into the intricate dynamics of each game and uncovering the compelling narratives that lie beneath the surface. Whether exploring the resilience of a cricket team facing adversity, the camaraderie forged on a football pitch, or the individual brilliance that ignites a basketball court, I strive to capture the essence of sport as a vehicle for human connection and expression. With every article penned, I fulfill my passion and commitment to celebrating the universal language of athletic endeavor.
