The Jakarta round of the 2022 MXGP World Championship has been removed from the calendar, an announcement from the FIM has confirmed.

While the Samota-Sumbawa round on 26 June means that the grand prix series will host a single round in Indonesia, the scheduled Jakarta event won’t go ahead this season.

“The FIM, Infront Moto Racing and the local organiser regret to announce the cancellation of the MXGP of Jakarta which was set to take place on 2-3 July,” a statement read. “Despite immense efforts, the local organiser was not able to facilitate the correct running of this year’s event.

“All stakeholders look forward to returning to Jakarta for FIM Motocross World Championship in the future. In the meantime, they will concentrate their efforts on the upcoming MXGP of Indonesia, which will run in Samota-Sumbawa on 25-26 June.”
