The Indian MotoGP Grand Prix has hit yet another roadblock, now pushed to 2026. Initially scheduled for 2025, the race has been abruptly dropped, frustrating both fans and organisers. Official statements blame “operational circumstances,” but the same financial and bureaucratic issues from 2024 may be at play.

India’s second chance at MotoGP glory has fizzled out. The 2024 event was already scrapped due to a missed hosting fee deadline, and now 2025 faces the same fate. The circuit is now relegated to a backup spot on the calendar.

The government of Uttar Pradesh has replaced Fairstreet Sports as promoter, but efforts to find a new organiser have failed, with tenders issued and revoked rapidly.

As MotoGP’s return to India remains in limbo, fans are left wondering—will this iconic race ever come back, or is India’s MotoGP dream fading? Fading fast?
