2026 MotoGP Italian Grand Prix: How to watch and full schedule
The full schedule and TV details for the 2026 MotoGP Italian Grand Prix.
The seventh round of the 2026 MotoGP season takes place at the Catalan Grand Prix in Barcelona.
Aprilia's Marco Bezzecchi leads the championship coming to the Mugello round of the campaign. He led by only one point going into Catalunya two weeks ago after Jorge Martin won in France, but Bezzecchi extended that advantage to 15 points last time out, despite his own struggles, as Martin failed to score in both races.
Martin also crashed in the post-race test in Barcelona, but he is not ruled out of Mugello.
There are set to be several absentees this weekend after a chaotic race in Catalunya. Alex Marquez and Johann Zarco are certain to miss the Italian Grand Prix after their respective Barcelona crashes, and Marc Marquez has not yet been confirmed to return after breaking bones in his foot in France, and also undergoing shoulder surgery.
