MotoGP: Moto2/Moto3 Session Format Changes For 2025

MotoGP: Moto2/Moto3 Session Format Changes For 2025

© 2024, Roadracing World Publishing, Inc. From a press release issued By Dorna

The Grand Prix Commission has approved sporting and technical regulation updates for Moto2™ and Moto3™ in 2025. One is the session format.

After the success of the new format in the MotoGP™ class providing a balance between entry to Q2 and track time for teams and riders to work on setup, the session structure for Moto2™ and Moto3 will change in 2025 to establish consistency across the classes. This will give Moto2™ and Moto3™ two Free Practice sessions that do not count towards entry to Q2 and one Practice session on Friday afternoon that will decide the entrants to Q2.

Another is if it rains on the grid. The rain on grid procedure for Moto2™ and Moto3™ will be brought in line with MotoGP™, so in case of rain on the grid in Moto2™ or Moto3™, bikes will now be pushed into pit lane to make adjustments.

In the technical regulations, the Moto3™ chassis and engine price cap has been adjusted, as well as the specification freeze in Moto3™. Finally, manufacturers with concessions in Moto2™ will also get more test days.
