2012 MotoGP - Schedule Updates

The FIM released the provisional 2012 MotoGP Schedule or jadwal motogp 2012 last September, just a few things were lacking - the circuit that will host the Germany GP (pending confirmation of contract), as well as the confirmation of Jerez.

On Wednesday, the FIM re-released the 2012 MotoGP Schedule or jadwal motogp 2012, which confirms the Jerez circuit around the calendar, and as well names Sachsenring when the circuit that may host the German Grand Prix.

Besides these, truly the only other change in the 2012 calendar will be the date for that opening round of MotoGP at Qatar, the date for Doha/Losail was moved from April 15 to April 8.

This season begins a new era in GP racing as engine capacity is raised to 1000cc, and also the addition of Claiming Rules Team (CRT). Each CRT is usually a privateer entry which is in a position to have certain flexibility in fuel-tank capacity and engines, leading them to be competitive to perform while using other prototypes.
