A relaxation in Covid restrictions means an extra 10,000 fans per day will be able to attend home hero Valentino Rossi's🎶 final MotoGP race at Misa🧔no later this month.

Attendance for the prevꩵious September round was capped at 25,000 fans per day. The Sunday was sold out, with 60,453 fans present over the three-day race weekend.

The new rules mean that up to 35,000ꦆ fans can now attend on each day of the October 22-24 event. All spectators will again need a grandstand ticket with the grass banks remaining closed due to Covid regulations.

To put those figures in♛to perspective, a total of 158,000 fans attended the pre-Covid 2019 Misano round (21,000 Friday, 41,000 Saturday, 96,000 Sundayꦑ).

Due to further Covid cancellations, Misano is joining Qatar, Portimao and the Red Bull Ring in hosting two MotoGP event🦩s this season (as it did last year).

Fra🔯ncesco Bagnaia and Ducati took a close home victory over title leader Fabi🎶o Quartararo in the September round, when Rossi could only manage 17th place.

The Doctor will clearly be aiming for a far more competitive showing in his final home appearance, at a ci♚rcuit where he won in 2008, 2009 and 2014.

After Misano, Ross♊i's grand prix career will conclude with events at Portimao and Valenc𒊎ia.

The 2022 Misano MotoGP round is set f🌠or Septembe💞r 2-4.
