In a significant boost for the stagnant Indian motorsport scene, the country will be hosting a maiden MotoGP World Championships race, labelled as the ‘Grand Prix of Bharat’, at the Buddh International Circuit in Greater Noida next year.

The Buddh International Circuit, which will be hosting the MotoGP race, was once home to the Formula 1 Indian Grand Prix, held for three consecutive years from 2011 to 2013 before it was discontinued due to financial, tax and bureaucratic hurdles.
