Although there were uncertainties mid-season, Marc steadily built a large lead in the standings. However, a sustained injury caused him to miss the final GP of the 2025 Season. But Marc recovered in the meantime and will race in the upcoming MotoGP 2026 Season. Additionally, Francesco Bagnaia, Alex Marquez, and Marco Bezzecchi are returning to the circuit after a glorious 2025 Season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-runner-up-and-other-notable-races\">Runner-up and Other Notable Races<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Alex Marquez came very close to his brother, but his earlier setbacks in the season caused him a great decline. As a result, he got the runner-up position. Marco Bezzecchi follows up with a third-place finish due to his exceptional timing. It could have been Francesco Bagnaia to finish third, but he lost the chance drastically. One of the biggest reasons is Bagnaia&#8217;s issues with the bike. He was a prolific rider who was known for his style and control. But due to bike difficulties, he was left out on numerous occasions. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-to-expect-from-the-motogp-2026-season\">What to Expect from the MotoGP 2026 Season?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The all-new MotoGP 2026 brings various additions to the calendar and racing. After a dramatic pre-season, the MotoGP 2026 has prompted the teams and constructors learn from their mistakes. So, we can expect visible changes in bikes, tyre management, and even in riding styles. Besides, the MotoGP 2026 Calendar has some exciting additions, with the main one being Brazil. MotoGP returns to Brazil after 20 years, making an electrifying race at Aut\u00f3dromo Internacional Ayrton Senna. Regarding the competition, Marc Marquez, Alex Marquez, Francesco Bagnaia, and Marco Bezzecchi are the close contenders. Following the previous season, all these riders are heavily determined to sweep the championship title this time. Let\u2019s move on to the MotoGP 2026 calendar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-motogp-2026-calendar-and-circuits\">MotoGP 2026 Calendar and Circuits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-grand-prix-of-thailand\">1.

Although he finished third in the final pre-season testing race, Marc is a strong consideration. He has an effective riding and braking style that allows him to stay in the front with a significant lead. Particularly in the corners, Marc keeps the speed up without crashing. The Chang International Circuit\u2019s track, which will test Marc&#8217;s braking ability to the core, is one he will benefit from. In the upcoming MotoGP Thailand GP, Marc Marquez is expected to finish first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-alex-marquez\">Alex Marquez<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Alex Marquez comes with his BK8 Gresini bike, having finished the previous season in second place. He has a smooth riding style that maximizes on minimal brake control and relies on bike control. Besides, he has excellent rear tyre management, which minimizes wear and gives high cornering speed. So, Alex will have more overtakes, allowing him to stay within the leading spots. Hence, Alex will finish in the second spot, next to Marc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-marco-bezzecchi\">Marco Bezzecchi<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Marco Bezzecchi\u2019s Aprilia Racing has won several rounds of the Pre-Season rounds. The team has already surpassed Ducati with Marco Bezzecchi. Bezzecchi finished third last season and has solid control of his bike. Regarding braking, he has an aggressive braking style, which might slightly hinder his speed. Otherwise, the Italian is well-positioned to finish third in this MotoGP 2026 opening race.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The MotoGP returns with another season of twists, overtakes, and turns, fueling storylines throughout.
