MotoGP issues revised 2016 calendar

MotoGP organizers have issued a revised calendar for the 2016 campaign, featuring four date changes from the provisional roster published back in September.

Germany marks the first tweak, dropping back to July 17, with Britain in turn moving to September 4, meaning it is now set to clash with Formula 1's Italian Grand Prix.

Further alterations see Malaysia swap to October 30, after the other two late flyaways in Japan and Australia, and the Valencia finale shift to November 13 as a result.

20 March – Qatar (Losail)*
3 April – Argentina (Río Hondo)
10 April – America (Circuit of the Americas)
24 April – Spain (Jerez)**
8 May – France (Le Mans)
22 May – Italy (Mugello)
5 June – Catalunya (Barcelona)
26 June – Netherlands (Assen)
17 July – Germany (Sachsenring)
14 August – Austria (Red Bull Ring)
