Overview
- Marc Marquez won the Czech Grand Prix at Brno and, combined with his third place in the Saturday Sprint, reduced his deficit to championship leader Marco Bezzecchi by 32 points.
- Marco Bezzecchi was suspended from the Brno Grand Prix after physically striking a marshal during the Sprint, and Aprilia’s appeal of the exclusion was rejected.
- Ai Ogura secured his first MotoGP pole at Brno with a new track record and finished second in the Grand Prix, marking a breakout weekend for the Trackhouse-Aprilia rookie.
- Francesco Bagnaia won the Saturday Sprint and finished third in the Grand Prix, while Pedro Acosta suffered a late technical retirement that cost KTM a points finish.
- MotoGP ran test starts at Brno without the Holeshot device as part of plans to stop its use from the Silverstone weekend and to ban ride-height devices in 2027, a move that could change race starts and team set-ups.
