JAKARTA – The Mandalika Grand Prix Association (MGPA) is pleased with the government's policy of easing the COVID-19 rules. It is considered that it will facilitate the work of MGPA as the organizer of MotoGP.
The second series of MotoGP 2022 will be held at the Mandalika Circuit from March 18 to 20. The government allows spectators who have been vaccinated for two doses to attend without the need to bring PCR test results or antigens.
MPGA Deputy Director Cahyadi Wanda said that the decision made by the government clearly had a positive impact on his side. However, what is clear, said Cahyadi, is that this policy is not made specifically for MotoGP, but for all Indonesian people.
"We thank you for this decision. Even though this decision was not made for us, but all the Indonesian people. But, what is clear is that we get a positive impact. So we see this must be a decision that has been carefully thought out by the government," said Cahyadi in Jakarta. Jakarta, Tuesday, March 8th.
Currently, West Nusa Tenggara Province is at PPKM level 1. This indicates that COVID-19 cases in the area have decreased significantly.
Cahyadi said that the declining number of cases and the government's policy to loosen the pandemic rules made the flow of arrivals for drivers and the entire crew easier.
"Including the audience, who previously thought they had to spend money for various tests, with this policy, the audience believed, and came on the first and second day," he said.
Until now, the MGPA is still making improvements to the asphalt track in several parts according to the recommendations of Dorna Sport and the International Motorcycle Federation (FIM). The target for this work is scheduled to be completed this week.
The Mandalika Grand Prix is a newcomer to this year's MotoGP almanac. This will be the second series of the most prestigious race after Qatar which was completed last Sunday, March 6.
