Argentine MotoGP 'still possible'
The Argentine round of the 2020 MotoGP World ꦿChampionship was 𝐆among the early events shifted to a later date, due to the coronavirus.
Termas de Rio Hondo had been due to host round four of the season on April 17-19, 🤡but was moved to become the pen🅰ultimate round on November 20-22, where it currently remains.
But while MotoGP has submitted a proposal to start at Jerez in July and is aiming for a total of 10-12 European races (counting repeat visits to the same circuit) a question mark currently hangs over whethe❀r there will be any 'flyaway' races this season.

Dorna CEO Carmelo Ezpeleta recently stated that, while 🍬the European events are set to be behind closed-doors, Asian races w♓ould only be possible if spectators can be present, due to the added costs.
No mention was made of the US or Argentina rounds, which run back-to-back, but speaking to , Ezpeleta declared:
"Of course, we [maintain] the possibility of running in Argentina. We have a contract and we hope to be able to close a date together with the relevant autho🍰rities and the promoter."
He added: "Racing at Termas behind clos𓄧e๊d-doors or with the public [present] is something that we will have to look at according to the authorities at the right time."
Organisers of the Argentine round have signalled their intentions ✨to hold a race by offering a 15% discount on tickets for the Termas MotoGP, until the end of May. The event date listed on ܫthe ticket promo remains November 20-22.
