What’s the odds on 8 rounds in Poland, maybe behind closed doors.

Europe has massive COVID problems.

Why couldn't they hold the German GP behind closed doors then?

Maybe  o money to fund it without fans, maybe riders etc need to isolate going in and/or coming out of Germany.  Just guessing, but 2 cancellations now.

BECAUSE of the distinct possibility that Covid restrictions could come into play for riders crossing to and from Germany and the Teterow club simply do not have the experience or facilities to run in a bubble with testing facilities protecting not just the riders but also the officials, mechanics, etc. 

The Swedish league has already been put back to June.

The reason is indeed that there is no money to fund the German SGP without having paying spectators.

Has Cardiff been cancelled?

Just tried to order a ticket on the SGP website and it says "Page Not Found" when trying to order a ticket.

It now seems to have changed. You can get in, but all ticket ranges show as "Tickets not available."

The SGP doesn't seem to be listed on the Principality Stadium website.

Good call. I had a look at the website and the only event shown is a Rammstein concert on 16 June 21. But looking at the news option, latest 21 March 2021,  it says Rammstein is now put back to 30 June 2022.

Covid passports won't be ready so there will probably be a capacity restriction and social distancing. If it did go ahead I guess tickets would have to be scraped to accommodate a socially distant seating plan.

If Cardiff is off and the Top riders are allowed out of Poland, maybe, if i'm allowed to suggest it,  back to back behind closed doors GPs in Britain, Glasgow or Berwick on the friday and Belle Vue on the saturday
