2017 MotoGP schedule confirmed

The Honda team of Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa remains unchanged for next year, but neither seemed impressed with their new engine.

Dorna and the FIM have confirmed the 2017 MotoGP schedule.

The series kicks off in Qatar, as usual, then crosses the Atlantic for the Argentinian round. From there, it’s up to Texas, for April’s showdown at the Circuit of the Americas, which is once again the only North American race.

After the Austin GP, the circus returns to Europe for several weeks; in September, there’s a swing through Asia and Australia, and then after the Sepang round, the series closes down at Valencia in mid-November.
