2026 Indonesian MotoGP at Mandalika: Start times and how to watch
Information below on how to watch this weekend’s 2026 Indonesian MotoGP round at the Mandalika, including timings and schedule.
This is how to watch the 2026 Indonesian MotoGP at Mandalika, round 17 of the world championship, which takes place from 9-11 October.
We’ve also listed the start times for all this weekend’s MotoGP sessions below, in both local time and UK time.
Last weekend’s Motegi round saw Marc Marquez claim a double victory and cut Jorge Martin's title lead down to just two points.
Marco Bezzecchi finished third in Japan, but, like Pedro Acosta, is now in danger of losing touch with the top two in the title fight.
Bezzecchi won last year's Indonesia Sprint from pole, but then collided with Marquez in the Grand Prix, causing the newly crowned champion to miss the remainder of the season with shoulder injuries.
Meanwhile, although Gresini rookie Fermin Aldeguer won the Indonesian Grand Prix, the rest of the Ducati riders struggled on the special heat-resistant rear tyre, with Marc Marquez only sixth (after a long lap) in the Sprint.
As such, Aprilia will be hoping to strike back at Mandalika.
