MOTOGP SPANISH GRAND PRIX: START TIME, HOW TO WATCH AND MORE

MotoGP will visit the Circuito de Jerez this weekend for the Spanish Grand Prix. Last year’s race was won by the 2023 world champion Francesco Bagnaia, who also took the victory in 2022.

Bagnaia took the championship title during last year’s season finale after a tight battle with Jorge Martin. The Italian is currently sat in 5th place in the 2024 championship standings, after a retirement in Portugal and a difficult round in America. Martin is currently leading the title race for Pramac and is sat 21 points ahead of second place Enea Bastianini.
