We are crossing our fingers and toes here at Trooper Lu’s Garage that racing will be back to normal in 2022! That means a jam-packed calendar of events for all the major world championships and the end of back-to-back rounds at the same circuits.
There should also be some more freedom to travel so everyone can enjoy the best motorcycle racing in the world trackside instead of at home in your tracksuit! Dust off those earplugs and let’s go!
MotoGP has an massive calendar of events in 2022 with a gruelling 21 round schedule. It kicks off in Qatar in March and finishes up in November at Valencia. The World Superbike (SBK) calendar is yet to have all races confirmed and the British Superbike (BSB) championship calendar is currently provisional (as of November 2021). All BSB rounds are triple headers now, meaning there’s a Saturday race at each of the 11 rounds.
