A provisional version of the 2011 MotoGP World Championship calendar has been released by the FIM.
The calendar contains the same 18 rounds as in 2010, meaning that the new Aragon circuit - originally a one-year stand-in for the ditched Hungarian round - has been retained.
The racing season will start three-weeks earlier than this year, with the traditional Qatar night race, but end at almost exactly the same time in Valencia. Yahoo! Eurosport UK
Spain will host four rounds of the 2011 MotoGP championship after the International Motorcycling Federation published the provisional calendar.
The other venues in Spain are Jerez, Catalunya and the traditional season finale in Valencia.
The season starts in Qatar on 20 March with the British GP on 12 June. BBC Sport
