Overview
- The MotoGP season resumes at Silverstone with round 12 returning the championship to action after the summer break and the top five riders separated by just 24 points.
- Marco Bezzecchi has resumed riding after surgery but must pass MotoGP medical checks on Thursday to be declared fit to race and confirm his Silverstone participation.
- Marc Marquez has surged back from a large early deficit to sit 18 points behind the leader, making him the form rider who could capitalise if Bezzecchi is sidelined.
- Jorge Martin leads the standings and arrives having used the break to address fitness; his confirmed move to factory Yamaha for 2027 is already shaping team and manufacturer thinking.
- The British Grand Prix, running 7–9 August, will be broadcast live on MotoGP Video Pass with TNT Sports coverage in the UK and features Silverstone-specific setup questions such as holeshot device use and wider grid spacing.
