#VirtualSpanishGP: MotoGP and Two Wheels for Life unite against coronavirus
The Red Bull Virtual Grand Prix of Spain sees Two Wheels and Dorna Sports team up to raise funds for the fight against Covid-19
Jerez, 30 April 2020: The Red Bull Virtual Grand Prix of Spain takes place this Sunday at 3 pm (GMT +2), with the MotoGP, Moto2 and Moto3 classes all suiting up to do digital battle in a world-first event. The star-studded line-up will be taking on the challenge on the new official MotoGP20 Videogame from videogame developer, publisher and long-standing partner Milestone; racing around the legendary Circuito de Jerez-Angel Nieto in Andalucia.
This time there’s more than glory at stake, however, as the event is in aid of MotoGP™’s official charity Two Wheels for Life to support their fight against Covid-19. The campaign is open for donations now and Dorna Sports begins the fundraising drive with a donation of €20,000! Fans and supporters can make their donations HERE, and links will also be available on social media throughout the broadcast of the Red Bull Virtual Grand Prix of Spain.
