Bulgaria set to host MotoGP from 2012

The Bulgarian Motorcycling Federation says it has reached an agreement to bring MotoGP to the nation from the 2012 season.

BMF head Bodgan Nikolov said a five-year deal had been secured with MotoGP rights-holder Dorna.

"We signed the agreement with Carmelo Ezpeleta and we're very pleased because no country from our region has hosted a motorcycle grand prix," Nikolov told Reuters.

"It's still not clear which track will host the races as we're still thinking over two options."

The news agency reports that a new circuit set to be constructed near the northern town of Dolna Mitropoliya is the most likely location for the event.
