Race Live: Channel & Time Guide

Direction Japan for the 17th round of the MotoGP season. We give you the time and the channel to follow the race live.

First opportunity to conclude the season for Marc Marquez. The Spaniard, leader of the general classification, could be crowned on Sunday. For this, the situation is simple. He must score 3 points more than his little brother, Alex, the only pilot can still compete in mathematically, to be officially world champion. In the event of a title, Marc Marquez would win his 7th title of champion. He would then match a certain Valentino Rossi. Ironically, Marquez has already been crowned here in Japan. It was in 2018. 7 years later, he therefore had the opportunity to reoffend, and to enter a little more into the history of this sport. Recall that Marc Marquez has not been crowned champion since 2019. He remains on a success during the last GP motorcycle, it was in Saint-Marin. The Italians Marco Bezzecchi, Franco Morbidelli and Fabio Di Giannantonio will try to spoil the party.
