Live updates from the second day of the Official 2026 Sepang MotoGP Test.
Reigning world champion Marc Marquez made an impressive return to MotoGP by leading day one of Official 2026 testing at Sepang in Malaysia. Unfortunately, Yamaha’s Fabio Quartararo had to sit out the remaining test days due to a broken finger, joining 2024 champion Jorge Martin on the sidelines as he continues to recover from surgery. Another notable absence was last year’s race winner, Fermin Aldeguer, who suffered a fractured femur in a training accident. Marquez ended day one ahead of Fabio di Giannantonio, with Maverick Vinales in third for KTM. The top six was rounded out by Alex Marquez, Marco Bezzecchi, and Luca Marini. Testing is scheduled from Tuesday to Thursday, with sessions running from 10am to 6pm along with practice start periods.
