Sachsenring Sprint Race: New 2026 MotoGP World Championship standings
New 2026 MotoGP World Championship standings after Saturday's German Sprint race at Sachsenring, round 11 of 22.
Jorge Martin extends his MotoGP world championship lead over absent team-mate Marco Bezzecchi in Saturday's Sachsenring Sprint race.
However, Jorge Martin could only manage a sixth-place finish, meaning - although the positions haven't changed - it's got even closer at the top.
Fabio di Giannantonio has closed to within 13 points of the world championship lead with third in the Sprint.
Ai Ogura is 23 points behind and Sprint winner Marc Marquez 32 points from Martin heading into Sunday's grand prix.
Marco Bezzecchi missed the race due to a collarbone injury in qualifying and could drop as low as fifth after Sunday's race.
Meanwhile, Martin, di Giannantonio and Ai Ogura each have a mathematical chance of leading the world championship on Sunday evening.
