Carlos Ezpeleta has discussed the potential of a MotoGP and Formula One joint event in the future.

Dorna boss Carlos Ezpeleta did not deny the possibility of a potential MotoGP and Formula One crossover event, but knows that it is important to 'pay attention to what our fans want'.

The idea of seeing MotoGP and Formula One racing at the same venue on the same weekend has been suggested for multiple years, but has never become more than an idea.

But now that the F1 owner, Liberty Media, has acquired MotoGP, there have been increased discussions over the idea possibly becoming a reality in the future.

In an interview with Speedweek, Carlos Ezpeleta doesn’t shoot down the idea, but stresses that it is a logistically challenging concept.

"Everything is worth trying once," he began.

"Especially when it comes to bringing MotoGP to a new target audience. Formula is sold out in many venues and MotoGP is also doing very well, with numerous sold-out events.

"At the same time we can’t double the capacity on site, for example, if we bring both racing series to one track.

"I think we have a lot to expect from Liberty. There’s no doubt about that - however it’s done. We have a significantly different demographic among MotoGP and Formula 1 fans.

"In the less developed markets - that is, the potential markets - there’s quite a discrepancy.

"We also have to pay very close attention to what our fans wants and would like to see. I think there’s still growth potential everywhere - it’s certainly something we’ll filter out.”

"We’ve already evaluated a few things in the past. There are some limitations, like the air fences.

"That’s about setting them up and dismantling them between sessions. That could make the whole process quite complicated.

"But we’re still willing to consider it. It’s important, though, that both racing series remain authentic as they are."
