The 2021 Doha motorcycle Grand Prix (officially known as the Tissot Grand Prix of Doha) was the second round of the 2021 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season. It was added to the calendar as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic. It was held at the Losail International Circuit in Lusail on 4 April 2021.

Background

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic

See also: COVID-19 pandemic in Qatar. On 22 January 2021 Dorna announced a significant update of the provisional calendar following the postponement of the Argentine and American Grands Prix, originally scheduled as the second and third rounds of the championship (on 11 and 18 April respectively) due to the COVID-19 situation in both countries, with potential rescheduling for the last quarter of 2021. The organizers of the Qatar Grand Prix have signed a contract with Dorna Sports, owner of the sport's commercial rights, to host a double stage at the Losail International Circuit, becoming the sixth circuit in the history to host two consecutive World Championship races, and is the first time to be held in Qatar. The race is named after the city of Doha, where the circuit is located just outside the city of Lusail, north of Doha.
