Will Jorge Lorenzo and Casey Stoner line up for the Japanese MotoGP in October?

The FIM and Dorna Sports have now received the official detailed and final report provided by ARPA, recognised body to investigate the current situation in Motegi and its environs.

Based on this report the FIM and Dorna Sports confirm today that, subject to there being no further serious incidents, the Grand Prix of Japan will take place on 2 October as planned.

As already indicated in the previous Press Release, ARPA has measured levels of radiation from all sources including the air, environment and food.

The final conclusion is that ‘based on the estimate dose it can be said with no doubt that the radiation risk during the race event is negligible’.

This study is intended to complement the information already available from various Governments and the World Health Organisation, which addresses the general situation in Japan following the earthquake and subsequent tsunami that occurred in March.

This independent investigation reports specifically on the situation in Motegi and its environs, making it much more relevant to MotoGP participants.
