The United States, Italy, and Spain stand at the forefront of the countries most devastated by COVID-19, where citizens are still trying to establish a functional daily routine during the pandemic. The rapid spread of the disease forced a standstill across various industries, including business, travel, and transport. Because 2020 was scheduled as an Olympic year, the sporting world was hit particularly hard; following government orders in March and April, almost all major international and domestic competitions were shut down in response to the global pandemic emergency.
The United States of America, Italy, and Spain rank in the top position when listing the coronavirus affected countries, where people are still figuring a lifestyle and a routine to follow in the pandemic crisis. Business, Transport, Travel, etc. had to hold the progress due to the disease spread. Being the Olympic year, sports also went into lockdown as per the governing rules of the country since March-April 2020, along with it various international and national events had to close doors because of the world alert of COVID-19 awakening.

The coronavirus outbreak hit Spain hard, particularly affecting its rural communities, with positive cases exceeding 2.2 million and fatalities surpassing 20,000, though more than 1.2 million people have recovered. This global crisis has caused significant financial strain on sports governing bodies worldwide due to the mass cancellation and rescheduling of events. Consequently, there have been widespread discussions about resuming competitions after mid-June to help these organizations recover financially. Any sports returning in the second half of 2020 will have to follow strict government guidelines, meaning games will likely be played in empty stadiums. In Spain, the government's permission is needed for the Jerez MotoGP to proceed on July 19th and 26th, 2020, as well as for the World Superbike Championship, which is tentatively planned for August 2nd, 2020.

To move things forward, executives from Dorna Sports teamed up with representatives from Jerez and the Andalusia councils to present a formal proposal to the Spanish government. While the riders of the Jerez MotoGP Grand Prix would be able to compete against one another on the tracks in Southern Spain, they would do so without the usual roar of the crowd. Carmelo Ezpeleta, the CEO of Dorna Sport, expressed confidence that races could resume in July 2020, provided they follow the 'behind closed doors' format. Under this plan for the Spanish World Championship, the Moto2 and Moto3 races would be limited to about 35 spectators, while the main MotoGP race would allow up to 1,600 people. Similarly, La Liga is expected to restart its football matches in June under strict regulations and without fans. These shifts come after the original MotoGP season opener in Qatar, scheduled for March 8th, 2020, was disrupted by the pandemic.
