The MotoGP finale has been switched from Valencia to Barcelona because of the devastating floods in Spain. The last round of the series was scheduled for the Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia but the venue has been impacted by the floods caused by torrential rain.

Dorna has officially confirmed Barcelona as the venue which will decide who is the 2024 MotoGP world champion.
