Team changes

[edit]
  • Onexox TKKR withdrew from the Moto2 world championship on 1 December 2020 due to sponsorship difficulties, and would focus on their other championship activities[19] as well as planning to enter FIM CEV Repsol Moto2 for the year 2021 and would try coming back to Moto2 in 2022 as a team.[citation needed]

Rider changes

[edit]

Mid-season changes

[edit]
  • Tommaso Marcon replaced Simone Corsi for the Doha round because of an injury.
  • Miquel Pons replaced Simone Corsi for the Portuguese round because of an injury.
  • Fraser Rogers replaced Barry Baltus for the Portuguese round because of a fractured left wrist.
  • Taiga Hada replaced Barry Baltus for the Spanish round because of a fractured left wrist.
  • Yari Montella missed several Grands Prix due to injuries. Alonso López replaced him for the French and Catalan rounds, while Fermín Aldeguer replaced him for the Italian and German rounds. He was cleared to race during the British Grand Prix, but was suspended by his own team due to concerns with his injury. Aldeguer replaced him for that round and the succeeding Aragonese round.[20] Speed Up eventually terminated Montella's contract after the San Marino Grand Prix and was replaced by Aldeguer for the rest of the season.[21]
  • Alonso López replaced Héctor Garzó for the German round because of burns suffered from a previous crash.[22]
  • Lorenzo Baldassarri missed the Dutch round after having surgery on his fractured hand sustained during the preceding German round. He was replaced by Manuel González.[23] Baldassarri returned to race the next three rounds, but was replaced again by González during the Aragonese round to prioritise his recovery.[24]
  • Jake Dixon raced in MotoGP for Petronas Yamaha SRT as a replacement for the injured Franco Morbidelli during the British and Aragon Grands Prix. Adam Norrodin and John McPhee replaced Dixon for the British and Aragonese rounds, respectively.[25][26]
  • Lorenzo Dalla Porta underwent surgery prior to the Grand Prix of the Americas and was forced to miss the rest of the season. Tetsuta Nagashima replaced him for the remaining races, except the Emilia Romagna round, where Mattia Casadei replaced Dalla Porta.[27]
  • Hafizh Syahrin missed the Emilia Romagna round because of family problems that prevented him from leaving his home country Malaysia. He was replaced by Tommaso Marcon for the round.[28]

Calendar changes

[edit]
  • The Finnish Grand Prix was due to be reintroduced to the calendar after a 38-year absence. The venue hosting the round was to be the new Kymi Ring, instead of the Tampere Circuit used in 1962 and 1963, or the Imatra Circuit which hosted the round until 1982. The Finnish Grand Prix had been included on the 2020 calendar, but the inaugural race was cancelled in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • The Czech Republic Grand Prix was initially left off the provisional calendar, as the circuit requires mandatory resurfacing for safety compliance, and it was unclear if the necessary work could be completed in time for its typical schedule date in early August. The 11th round of the championship was therefore left open as provisionally pending.[48] On 8 December 2020, Brno city councillors opted out of the 2021 calendar, citing financial difficulties due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[49] It marked the first absence of a Grand Prix in Brno since 1992. The mayor of Brno hopes for the return of the championship in 2022.[50]

Calendar changes as a reaction to COVID-19 pandemic

[edit]
  • With the uncertainty of the development of the COVID-19 pandemic, championship organizer Dorna elected in November 2020 to nominate three "Reserve Grand Prix Venues" which could be used in the event that local virus containment measures or regulations force the cancellation of a planned Grand Prix.[51]
  • On 22 January 2021, Dorna significantly updated the provisional calendar including the following changes:[29]
    • The Argentine and American Grands Prix would be postponed due to the COVID-19 situation in both countries, with potential rescheduling for the final quarter of 2021.
    • A double-header would open the season in Qatar on 28 March and 4 April, followed by Portugal as the third round.
    • The provisionally pending race created by the absence of the Czech Grand Prix was removed.
    • The potential Russian Grand Prix was removed from the reserve list, leaving Indonesia as the sole Reserve Grand Prix Venue.
  • On 14 May the Finnish Grand Prix was cancelled due to the COVID-19 situation, and a second Spieiberg race, the Styrian Grand Prix, would replace it on the date of 8 August. It was also confirmed that the Indonesian Grand Prix would remain a reserve Grand Prix in the 2021 calendar, subject to circuit homologation.[30]
  • On 23 June the Japanese Grand Prix was cancelled due to the COVID-19 situation, with the previously postponed Grand Prix of the Americas taking its place in the calendar. This also led to the postponement of the Thailand Grand Prix by one week.[54]
  • On 6 July the Australian Grand Prix was cancelled due to the COVID-19 situation, with the Malaysian Grand Prix brought forward by a week to replace it on the date of 24 October. In addition, a second race at Algarve, the Algarve Grand Prix, was introduced, which is scheduled to be held on 7 November.[43]
  • On 21 July the Thailand Grand Prix was cancelled due to the COVID-19 restrictions in the country.[55]
  • On 19 August the Malaysian Grand Prix was cancelled due to the COVID-19 restrictions in the country. For its replacement, a second Grand Prix at Misano was introduced, having the same schedule as the cancelled Malaysian round.[56]
  • On 11 September the final championship calendar comprising 18 Grands Prix was confirmed. The Emilia Romagna and Rimini Riviera Grand Prix returned as the second Grand Prix at Misano, now having the shortened name of Emilia Romagna motorcycle Grand Prix. The previously postponed Argentine Grand Prix was also cancelled.[42]
