Spanish Grand Prix: Times and how to watch the return of the competition after one month

The 40th edition of the Spanish Grand Prix in Jerez, an opportunity for Márquez to catch up on Bezzecchi?
Javier Escribano Editor Spain 24 April 2026

MotoGP resumes this weekend nearly a month after the USA Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas, because the Grand Prix of Qatar in Lusail was delayed until November, hoping the the war in the Middle East would have ended by then. Marco Bezzecchi is the leader after winning the first two races of the year (and five races in a row), but the 2024 champion Jorge Martín has started well too, hoping to leave behind the disaster of the 2025.

And nobody can write Marc Márquez off, especially on a circuit where he has won three times already... but the last time was in 2019. It was his brother Álex Márquez the one that won in 2025. Who will win in the 40th edition of the Spanish GP in Jerez?
