Honda Racing Corporation have made one of the biggest statements of the MotoGP silly season, confirming the signings of Fabio Quartararo and David Alonso as they prepare for the sport’s new era in 2027. With a former world champion and one of the brightest young talents in motorcycle racing joining the project, Honda are making their intentions clear as they look to return to the front of the grid.

Marc Márquez equalled Giacomo Agostini's all-time record with a tenth Sachsenring victory on Sunday, as a weekend of chaos reshaped the 2026 MotoGP title fight. Bezzecchi left Germany in a sling, Di Giannantonio crashed out of the race and Raúl Fernández somehow dragged a spark-trailing Aprilia onto the podium. The summer break could not have come at a more dramatic moment.

The Dutch GP delivered Ai Ogura's first premier-class win and a championship lead change nobody saw coming, after Marco Bezzecchi crashed out attacking his closest rival.

Marc Márquez delivered a statement victory at Brno on Sunday, fighting through from fifth on the grid to claim back-to-back Grand Prix wins and put a serious dent in Marco Bezzecchi's championship advantage on a day the Italian was forced to watch from the sidelines. Ai Ogura and Francesco Bagnaia rounded out the podium, while Bezzecchi's costly marshal incident from Saturday's Sprint left him banned from the race entirely, and his title lead cut to single figures.
