JAKARTA - Dorna Sport as the MotoGP organizer welcomes the planned meeting of a number of MotoGP riders with the President of Indonesia, Joko Widodo before the racing agenda takes place in Mandalika on March 18-20.

Not only meeting the President, Dorna Sport also confirmed that the racers will participate in the convoy's agenda on several roads in Jakarta on Wednesday tomorrow.

The presence of the racers in Jakarta to meet the President before Race Day was later recognized by Dorna Sport as a form of their appreciation to the Indonesian government. Because, so far the government has worked hard in preparing the second MotoGP series for the 2022 season, which will take place at the Mandalika Circuit.

Moreover, this is the first year for Dorna Sport and the government in carrying out the agreed cooperation for the next 10 years. Therefore, Dorna Sport is happy to be involved in the agenda that has been made.

"This is the first year of 10 years of cooperation. Therefore, out of our respect, the drivers will meet with President Joko Widodo tomorrow," said Dorna Sports Chief Sporting Officer, Carlos Ezpeleta in a written statement received by VOI, Tuesday.

Furthermore, Dorna Sport also did not forget to express their gratitude. This is because a number of their racers had the opportunity to meet the President in the midst of a busy state agenda.

"We also thank you for your time, Mr President," continued Carlos Ezpeleta, quoted from the official presidential website.

From a number of riders sent by Dorna Sport to meet President Jokowi and join the convoy's agenda, among them are racers with names that are already familiar to MotoGP fans. They are Marc Marquez, Joan Mir, Alex Rins, Francesco Bagnaia, Jack Miller, Maverick Vinales, Alex Marquez, and Takaaki Nakagami.

The route of the convoy of MotoGP racers itself is known to start from the State Palace and then continue to the HI Roundabout and return to the State Palace.

On the other hand, President Jokowi, who is certain to meet the racers, will not directly participate in the convoy's agenda. This was confirmed by the Head of the Presidential Secretariat Heru Budi Hartono.

"So for tomorrow, the President will only have an audience and after that he will release the riders with their own racing motorbikes. The president did not participate in the convoy," said Heru.
