MotoGP Sepang live ticker: Who will stop Marc Marquez’s march to the World Championship?

The Malaysian Grand Prix could prove to be a key event in the 2026 MotoGP season. Despite putting up a spirited fight in practice, World Championship runner-up Jorge Martin was forced to withdraw from the Malaysian GP – the pain in his right wrist was too severe, and his chances of securing a points-scoring result too slim.

MotoGP champion Marc Marquez skilfully seized the opportunity in the sprint race, securing the ideal championship result with second place behind KTM ace Acosta – but ahead of Aprilia’s second-strongest rider, Marco Bezzecchi. The big question on race Sunday at Sepang: will Marc Márquez manage to capitalise on the situation a second time and take the next step towards the World Championship title? Or will ‘MM93’ fall victim to his motivated rivals in the Malaysian heat?

And let’s not forget Alex Marquez. The fastest qualifier crashed whilst leading the Sprint and therefore still has a score to settle with Sepang. Find out everything about the Malaysian Grand Prix in SPEEDWEEK.com’s MotoGP live ticker
