Several news in the first draft of the 2023 calendar which was released in the paddock of the recent Aragon Grand Prix. In fact, next season the world championship will start from Portugal and Portimao – and no longer from Qatar -, anticipating the Lusitanian appointment by about a month compared to this year. The two races on the American continent of Termas de Rio Hondo and Austin, before returning to Europe, have been confirmed among the first appointments on the calendar. Austin, Jerez, Le Mans will succeed each other, with Aragon four months early, Mugello in the first week of June, Sachsenring and Assen. For 9 July, once the hypothesis of racing in Finland due to the well-known financial troubles of the Kymi Ring has passed, there would be the possibility of landing in Kazakhstan on the Sokol track: but also in this case the question mark is a must, in how much the circuit has not yet been homologated among those of grade A of the FIM.
Then a one-month break to restart with the European stages, Silverstone, Red Bull Ring and Montmelò (three months later than in 2022), with Misano on 10 September. He will then go to Japan, Australia, Indonesia, with the grand final between Qatar (it was the opening round of this season) and Valencia in mid-November.
