The race, initially set to be the 16th round of the season, had been scheduled for Oct. 15-17. "Despite the best efforts of all parties involved, the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and resulting restrictions have obliged the cancellation of the event," MotoGP said in a statement https://www.motogp.com/en/news/2021/07/21/2021-thai-gp-cancelled/382755, adding that it is working on a replacement race. Thailand has recorded more than 420,000 COVID-19 infections and 3,408 deaths, according to a Reuters tally. The Thai Grand Prix is the third Asian race to be cancelled due to COVID-19 following the Australian and Japanese rounds. The Finnish Grand Prix was also cancelled, with the Styrian Grand Prix added in its place. -- © Copyright Reuters 2021-07-21 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
