MotoGP Qatar GP November date still on, says Ezpeleta

With F1's Saudi race cancelled and Bahrain relocated to Malaysia, the broader picture of Middle East motorsport in 2025 is one of significant disruption — which makes Ezpeleta's intent to proceed notable rather than routine. Qatar has so far remained outside the direct conflict zone, and that geographic distinction appears to be the working basis for keeping the November 8 date intact. The qualifier 'idea is to go' is doing real work here: it signals intent without a firm commitment, leaving room to reassess as the regional situation develops. For MotoGP's calendar, Qatar is a meaningful late-season fixture, so any change would carry sporting as well as logistical weight.
