Friday practice for MotoGP's 2022 return to Argentina has been cancelled due to freight problems.
Delays in transporting freight from the previous round in Indonesia on March 20 to the Termas de Rio Hondo circuit this weekend means some teams - including Gresini Ducati's world championship leader Enea Bastianini - are still without their bikes and essential equipment.
It had been hoped that the delayed freight would arrive today (Thursday) and, following a night shift, all teams would be ready for Friday morning's FP1 session.
But a further flight problem means the entire Friday schedule, including Moto2 and Moto3, has now been scrapped and the first Argentine round since 2019 will be compressed into Saturday and Sunday.
