MotoGP has cancelled its Australian Grand Prix sprint race due to worsening weather conditions at Phillip Island
The MotoGP Australian Grand Prix sprint race has been cancelled due to worsening weather conditions at Phillip Island. The race was already in doubt due to the forecast of severe wind and rain on Sunday. MotoGP had rearranged its schedule and ran the grand prix on Saturday to ensure it would take place, but the conditions deteriorated further on Sunday. The Moto3 and Moto2 races were already affected by numerous crashes, and the Moto2 race had to be abandoned after just nine laps. Half an hour before the MotoGP sprint was due to start, the decision was made to cancel it due to the extreme conditions and the forecast suggesting that they would only worsen. Despite losing the chance to extend his lead, Pecco Bagnaia still holds a 27-point advantage over Jorge Martin in the championship standings.
