The second round of the 2026 MotoGP championship was held in Brazil last weekend. This is the first time in Brazil in more than two decades. In the end, it was Aprilia and Marco Bezzecchi with the greatest success.
Saturday’s Sprint saw a close battle between the Ducatis of Marc Marquez and Fabio Di Giannantonio, with Marquez coming out on top. Finishing third and fourth behind these two were the Aprilias of Jorge Martin and Marco Bezzecchi.
Sunday’s main event saw Bezzecchi take the holeshot and lead the entire race through the checkered flag. Martin worked his way into second place and finished there ahead of Di Giannantonio, who again battled with Marc Marquez, but was able to beat him to the flag this time.
Bezzecchi has now won four straight GPs (counting the final two races last year) and leads the championship going into the COTA round coming up this weekend.

Love to see Aprilia take it to the Ducatis. Time will tell though and COTA will certainly be a good test. Left hand turn MM dominates this and the Sachsenring. If Aprilia can keep it close on these tracks there’s a good chance of Bez winning the title. Hopefully.
