What is the format and who will compete in the Red Bull Virtual Grand Prix of Spain?
The line-up for the #VirtualSpanishGP will be full of stars of the sport. The MotoGP™ grid will contain 11 riders who will compete for 13 laps, with the Moto2™ and Moto3™ classes containing 10 riders each, racing for eight laps.
In addition, for the first time since its release on April 23, the riders will now be playing on the new official MotoGP™20 video game.
Highlights from qualifying will be shown before the three races, with those sessions set to decide the grid before the broadcast. The order will follow a normal Grand Prix weekend as Moto3™ race first, followed by Moto2™, before MotoGP™ take to the stage thereafter.
