2026 MotoGP Czech Grand Prix – How to watch, session times & more

Ducati heads into this weekend's Czech GP having won three out of the last five Sunday races. While Aprilia has proved that it has the best overall package on the grid, Ducati has generally had the edge in recent events due to a variety of reasons. Which of the two Italian manufacturers finishes ahead this weekend at Brno will be interesting to see, especially after Marc Marquez and Marco Bezzecchi's impressive duel at the same venue last year.

In the championship standings, Aprilia's Bezzecchi holds a 20-point lead over team-mate Jorge Martin, with VR6's Fabio di Giannantonio another 22 points adrift in third.

Marquez has recovered to fifth place in the standings, behind KTM's Pedro Acosta, following his fantastic double win at Balaton Park aboard the factory Ducati.
