MotoGP boss Carmelo Ezpeleta acknowledged a decision on the Indian Grand Prix must be made in the coming days after it appeared to be at risk of cancellation.
Last week, Motorsport.com announced that the Buddh International Circuit round, initially scheduled for 20-22 September, is set to be axed from the calendar after the race promoters breached a contract with Dorna Sports. In response to that, Pushkar Nath Srivastava, CEO of the Indian promoter, stated that the event would take place: 'The race is planned. Everything that is flying around is rumours. All contractual obligations will be updated in June.
It is understood that Dorna has been working to reschedule the Kazakhstan Grand Prix in the slot that might be vacated by the Indian round, having seen it postponed from its mid-June slot following flooding in the region. However, that is yet to be certain until guarantees can be made that show the Sokol circuit is able to host MotoGP in September.
