(Reuters) - MotoGP cancelled a scheduled race in Kazakhstan on Monday and replaced it with an Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix at Italy's Misano circuit on Sept. 20-22.

MotoGP promoter Dorna said in a statement that the inaugural race at Almaty's Sokol circuit could not be held due to "operational and logistical issues arising from the earlier flooding across the region".
