Due to the Coronavirus global health crisis, the FIM Endurance World Championship has modified its 2019-2020 calendar again and taken steps to protect the race teams. Championship promoter Eurosport Events, together with the FIM International Motorcycling Federation, has revised the remaining three rounds, taking government restrictions into account.
In view of the current lockdown, with bans on public gatherings and restrictions on the movement of people, the 8 Hours of Oschersleben, scheduled to take place on June 6th in Germany, has been cancelled. The high-profile event was added to the Endurance World Championship calendar in 1999 and has since become a must-see for all fans of the sport in Germany.
The 2019-2020 FIM Endurance World Championship will therefore restart in Japan on July 19th at the Suzuka 8 Hours for the Formula EWC class, with the EWC and Superstock teams then converging on France for the 24 Heures Motos on August 29-30th.
