After a 5-year contract was agreed, to start with a scheduled event in 2021, this was cancelled on 14 May 2021 due to COVID-19. The next anticipated event for 2022 was cancelled on 25 May 2022, due to incomplete homologation works at the track and the risks associated with the geopolitical situation in the region concerning the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. The MotoGP 2023 provisional race calendar was announced in late September 2022, without the Finnish Grand Prix.
