It’s been one thing after another for Finland’s KymiRing circuit. After hosting Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Ducati, KTM, and Aprilia test riders in 2019, the track looked forward to holding the first Finnish Grand Prix since 1982 in 2020.
Of course, the COVID-19 pandemic eliminated that possibility for both the 2020 and 2021 seasons. Yet again, MotoGP was scheduled to break its 40-year Finnish absence with a round at the Kausala circuit on July 10, 2022. However, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine forced FIM, IRTA, Dorna Sports, and KymiRing officials to postpone the event until 2023.
