MotoGP 2026

Round Ten – Assen – Friday

Aprilia on song as Bezzecchi heads Dutch TT Friday

Assen delivered a Friday worthy of the Cathedral of Speed, although this one came with a very different complexion to the usual Dutch TT picture. The heat was brutal, the track was slippery when the afternoon sessions really counted, and the opening day of Round Ten unfolded against both a record-breaking European heatwave and a freshly scrambled MotoGP rider market.

The paddock arrived in the Netherlands still absorbing the first official pieces of the 2027 puzzle, with Marc Marquez staying at Ducati through 2028, Francesco Bagnaia confirmed as Aprilia-bound from 2027, and Pedro Acosta set to replace Bagnaia alongside Marquez at Ducati.

There was also a technical reset to factor in. Assen marks the first round of the current era in which MotoGP front holeshot devices are no longer in play, following the ban on front holeshot devices from the Dutch Grand Prix onwards. Extra practice starts have been scheduled across the weekend, and with launching technique now back under the microscope, qualifying position and first-lap execution will be even more heavily scrutinised than usual.

The weather made the whole exercise harder. MotoGP Practice ran in 36-degree air temperature and 49-degree track temperature, with Moto2 recording the same ground temperature and Moto3 not far behind at 47 degrees. Saturday is expected to offer little relief, while Sunday should at least take some of the sting out of the worst of the heat.

Friday MotoGP Practice at the Dutch TT

Marco Bezzecchi came to Assen needing a response after Brno, and the Championship leader delivered exactly that. The Aprilia Racing rider topped FP1 with a 1m32.311, then backed it up in the hotter and more decisive afternoon Practice session with a 1m31.123 to secure Friday honours and direct passage to Q2.

It was a strong day for Aprilia as a whole. Raul Fernandez was second on the Trackhouse RS-GP, only 0.177 away from Bezzecchi, while Pedro Acosta spoiled the Aprilia top-three lockout by inserting the KTM into third, only 0.010 behind Fernandez. Ai Ogura continued his impressive run of form in fourth, giving Aprilia three of the top four and four bikes in Q2 once Jorge Martin’s ninth place was added to the count.

Bagnaia’s day was more complicated than the final order suggests. He had been second in FP1, but found himself outside the top ten late in Practice after a deleted lap and a set-up change that did not deliver the feeling he wanted. The red flag after Alex Marquez’s crash gave Bagnaia one last chance, and he made it count, jumping to fifth on a used tyre with a 1m31.384.

Marc Marquez was sixth, 0.323 from Bezzecchi, and appeared relatively content given Assen has never been one of his stronger circuits. Fabio Di Giannantonio put the VR46 Ducati straight into Q2 in seventh, Enea Bastianini also made a late jump to eighth, Martin was ninth despite a Turn 12 crash, and Alex Marquez held on to the final Q2 place in tenth.

Alex’s Friday was both encouraging and worrying. After looking sharp in Practice at Brno last week before withdrawing from the remainder of that event as a precaution, he was again quick early at Assen. He suffered a slow fall at Turn 5 early in the afternoon session, remounted, then later had a much heavier highside at Turn 11. That second crash brought out the red flag with three minutes remaining, and Alex was sent for further checks. No fractures were initially reported, but he was set to be reviewed again before Saturday’s running.

The late interruption turned the final minutes into a one-lap shootout for several riders. Bagnaia and Bastianini both used it to rescue Q2 spots, while Franco Morbidelli missed the cut by only 0.026 and will have to go through Q1. Joan Mir was the top Honda in 12th, just 0.125 outside the direct Q2 places, ahead of Diogo Moreira, who again showed flashes of strong pace on the LCR Honda.

Fermin Aldeguer was 14th after a Turn 11 crash of his own and did not return to the session. Fabio Quartararo was the fastest Yamaha, but only 15th, ahead of Maverick Vinales, Alex Rins, Luca Marini, Jack Miller and Toprak Razgatlioglu. Brad Binder, Augusto Fernandez and Cal Crutchlow completed the MotoGP Practice order.

The Yamaha picture was particularly tough. Quartararo, Rins, Miller, Razgatlioglu and Yamaha wildcard Augusto Fernandez are all bound for Q1, and while the M1 riders were not dramatically adrift through every sector, the final sector and the lack of grip in the heat left them short of the direct Q2 cut.

MotoGP Rider Quotes

MotoGP Rider Quotes

Marco Bezzecchi – P1

“It was a positive day. I already felt quite good this morning, and the bike performed well from the first laps. In the afternoon, the conditions were a little unusual, with very high temperatures bringing both positives and negatives, but overall I am satisfied.”

Raul Fernandez – P2

“I feel much better. I have energy now and can do what I want and am more focused compared to last week. The feeling with the bike is almost the same. I think, since Barcelona, that we found something that makes me feel comfortable on the bike and basically we made copy and paste here. Today, we had very hot conditions which didn’t make it easy to manage the rear tyre, especially the medium because we have a lot of spinning and overheating in two laps. It’s the more difficult part but overall, I think, it was quite a positive day and I’m happy and we are in a good way. Tomorrow we need to do a really good Qualifying to be in the first two rows, so let’s see what we can do.”

Ai Ogura – P4

“It was a good first day – top 10 on Friday – so job done for today. Still, there is a lot of work to do for tomorrow, so let’s see. The bike is working really well and to be competitive in sector four is very important at this circuit, so this is a good point. We are still missing something in sector one and sector three, that we have to improve tomorrow but, overall, it was a good first day.”

Francesco Bagnaia – P5

“It was a bit of a roller-coaster session. I was expecting a bit more in the first outing with the soft tyre, but a modification to the set-up didn’t work as we’d hoped, so we reverted to the previous settings while also opting for the medium rear tyre. In the third run, with the used medium tyre, the feeling was better. I wasn’t feeling too confident with the rear-end in the first time attack, while I encountered yellow flags on the following one. After the red flag, I went back out on a tyre that already had four laps on it, and I thought I wasn’t going to make it through to Q2. I pushed as hard as I could, though, and managed to put together a good lap. The first goal for tomorrow is to qualify on the front row.”

Marc Marquez – P6

“I’m happy and I feel good. The goal was to finish Practice in the top ten and we managed to do so, despite the fact that this has never been an easy track for me, even when I was fully fit. We know that our main rivals are very competitive at this circuit, so the goal is to lose as few points as possible. We need to keep working to bridge the gap, and then we’ll see how high we can aim this weekend.”

Fabio Di Giannantonio – P7

“I am happy, we reached Friday’s goal, which is the direct Q2. Today, we struggled a bit to keep the pace of the rider ahead of us, especially with soft tyre, but with the medium one we were closer to the front. We worked hard, because we always want to improve the bike even more – aerodynamic and setting. Overall, the day was good, because we found the best direction for us quite soon and we managed to complete good laps. The goal of the Qualifying will be to start as far forward as possible, that will be more crucial than ever because of the rule modification of the start without the front device.”

Enea Bastianini – P8

“This afternoon the grip was low. I was two seconds slower than the time attack, which was strange because the rear tyre was new. I think the heat made the track conditions very complicated, but when we put on the new front, the feeling changed, and it was possible to push again. I thought, ‘OK, with this feeling I have the chance to go through to Q2’, and I did it during the last time attack! Tomorrow morning we’ll try to ride with the used front tyre. I hope to feel a bit safer so let’s see what we can do.”

Jorge Martin – P9

“It was very hot, but the conditions are the same for everyone, so you need to adapt and prepare as well as possible. The crash happened while I was going more slowly because I didn’t want to overheat the rear tyre. Perhaps going more slowly meant the weight didn’t transfer properly to the front, and I crashed. This morning we tried a different front-end set-up, and I started to gain more confidence. That is positive because I now know where the limit is.”

Franco Morbidelli – P11

“Overall, it was a positive day. We had a good speed, it’s a pity we missed Q2 just by 26 thousandths and for the three-place penalty on the grid on Sunday. I am happy with the bike I’m riding and I am having fun despite the feeling is not as perfect as we expected. Today we were fast, and I’m sorry just for those 26 thousandths that will keep us apart from the direct Q2 spot. With the rule modification of the start, starting as far forward as possible will be crucial, that will be Qualifying’s goal.”

Joan Mir – P12

“I expected to struggle here with the layout, and the last sector is still where we need to improve the most. In the first sector we are strong, so we need to understand how to adapt the bike. I was able to make the lap time alone today which isn’t easy, sure we missed out in the end with the red flag situation which can always happen. Tomorrow Q2 will be tight like always but I am confident that the team can make something more to fight for that top two because we were close to achieving our goal of the top ten.”

Diogo Moreira – P13

“The hot conditions were fine. It felt good for a few laps, but it was difficult to understand the track because the grip was really challenging at the beginning. We’re happy with the job we did today. We narrowly missed out on Q2, but we’re ready to fight and give it another shot tomorrow.”

Fabio Quartararo – P15

“It was a difficult first day, just in general, but the goal is to fight for points and to maximise what we have. I am especially trying to maximise the braking: braking straight is where I can brake hard. Let’s see what we can do in the Sprint and the Race.”

Maverick Vinales – P16

“I’m struggling a lot here. In four corners I’m losing most of the gap to the other KTMs. As much as I want, physically I cannot do it. As a consequence of that I’m pushing too hard in other places. I’m locking the front, losing the front and the rear everywhere, all because I’m trying to recover the gap. The next round at the Sachsenring will be much easier than here in terms of physical condition, but it’s also important to evaluate what I have to do to recover fully.”

Alex Rins – P17

“It was tough. Unfortunately, we lost 20 minutes at the start of FP1 because of a technical mishap. I decided to do a short ‘long run’: I did 14 laps back to back to recover the time that we lost, and it wasn’t bad. But during the Practice, in the higher temperatures on track, we were struggling. This circuit is not one of the widest on the calendar, so you have to be as precise as possible. If you make even a small mistake, you can lose a lot of time.”

Luca Marini – P18

“A tough day, no two ways about it. Some bad luck also which limited my running in the morning and then the flags in the afternoon. Even with this, we are further than we want to be and need to improve a few points, especially in the last sector. It’s possible to go to Q2 but we need to work a lot, already we have improved the rear grip today. Sure, it was hot today, but I don’t think the weather is having a huge impact on our situation. My fitness is something I do not doubt, so I am ready for whatever happens with the sky.”

Jack Miller – P19

“It was one of those sessions where there’s not a lot to report because we had quite a few yellow flags and a red flag, which meant we lost time on track and couldn’t really put a proper lap together.

“The bike itself is quite solid. We are only one or two tenths off in the first three sectors, but we are losing everything in the final sector, especially in the last chicane, where we really need to improve the electronics.

“At the moment we need to work towards finding the clean exit I need. It’s something we’ve been trying to improve all day, and although we made a small step compared to this morning, it’s not enough yet.

“If we can clean up that last sector, we should be much more competitive tomorrow. The rest of the bike feels quite good, so we just need to put everything together.”

Toprak Razgatlioglu – P20

“It’s good to be back at Assen. Friday has been consistent with other weekends, and while we haven’t yet achieved a standout result, we are continuing to work step by step in the right direction. I’m riding at the limit and doing my best, with a pace around 32.5, but I’m aiming for 31s and at the moment it’s not quite there.

“We are still facing some issues, including an electronic problem that doesn’t involve engine braking, like we had in some other races. If we can improve that for tomorrow, I think we can make a big step, because I lose around half a second in just two or three corners while our pace is good in the rest of the track.

“This circuit is very technical with fewer heavy braking points for a MotoGP bike, so it’s not easy for our package. But I believe if we solve a few key areas, we can close the gap.

“It’s always special here with so many Turkish fans, and I hope to see them again supporting us tomorrow in the heat.”

Augusto Fernandez – P22

“I spent today recovering the feeling again. I expected, coming here, that the first day would be hard, especially here. You know that everyone is going to be on the pace from the first lap. The target for the weekend is to close the gap as soon as possible and finish the weekend with a better pace, so we will be in a better position to try things and test things. These wildcard races are very useful for me.”

Cal Crutchlow – P23

“In FP1 we had a small issue and I had to stop, so we lost a bit of track time. I tried to stay consistent throughout the day, and overall I felt quite good. The heat makes it really tough, and this is a very physical track with so many changes of direction. That’s where I struggled the most. We’ll see tomorrow.”

Saturday awaits

Saturday now shapes as a serious test of rider and machine management. The heat is expected to remain oppressive, the lack of front holeshot devices adds another variable to the starts, and the Q1 lists are stacked with riders who would normally expect to be further up the order.

MotoGP qualifying begins after FP2 on Saturday morning, before the 13-lap Sprint at 15:00 local time. Sunday’s Grand Prix is scheduled for 14:00 local time, when Assen should be a little less brutal, but likely no less demanding.

Moto2

The Moto2 field also found the afternoon conditions difficult. Manuel Gonzalez had been fastest in the cooler morning FP1 session with a 1m35.719, ahead of David Alonso and Senna Agius, but the decisive afternoon Practice session was slower and much messier.

Alonso handled the heat and lack of grip best, taking Friday Practice honours with a 1m36.154. Gonzalez was only 0.009 behind, while Tony Arbolino completed the top three just 0.064 from the top. The margins were typically fierce, with the top ten covered by only 0.256 and the top 14 by less than four-tenths.

David Alonso – P1

“There were a lot of crashes today; at one point the track was very tricky and it was really difficult to ride in the heat. If you took it easy, you set a good time, but if you pushed hard, you ended up with the same time or worse. It was tricky to manage, but I could read the track well in these conditions. The high temperatures mean the engine runs less efficiently, and that makes you lose a few tenths on the straight. What’s more, there was also less grip and it was tricky to trust the rear tyre. You have to try and give it your all in every situation.

“Tomorrow morning everything will look great, but in qualifying everything will change quite a lot. First, I want to work on my pace and high-speed cornering: these are key to putting in a good lap and I want to be more consistent in that regard. In the afternoon, we’ll have to switch to ‘high-temperature’ mode to survive. I’ll have to stick to the sections where I’m strong and, in the others, try to lose as little time as possible.

“If I manage to take pole at Assen, it’ll be a great joy, because it’s not my best circuit, but if I don’t manage it, I’ll try to finish as high as possible because it’ll give me a boost for the race.”

Senna Agius put together another strong Friday to finish fourth on the Intact GP Kalex, only 0.117 from Alonso. Dani Holgado was fifth for CFMOTO Aspar, one-thousandth ahead of Alex Escrig, with Taiyo Furusato seventh after briefly enjoying a spell near the top of the order. Ivan Ortola, Filip Salac and Adrian Huertas rounded out the top ten.

Home rider Collin Veijer secured direct Q2 passage in 11th, ahead of Izan Guevara, Aron Canet and Joe Roberts. That left Zonta van den Goorbergh as the first rider outside the Q2 places in 15th, followed by Deniz Oncu, Alberto Ferrandez and Daniel Munoz.

The session was crash-strewn. Celestino Vietti’s highside at Turn 5 was the headline incident and left the Italian not classified in Practice, sending one of the key championship contenders towards Q1. Ayumu Sasaki fell three times during the session, while Ferrandez, Luca Lunetta, Ortola and Oncu were also among those to go down.

For Agius, fourth in the decisive session was another useful step in a very tight class. Jacob Roulstone ended Friday 25th and will need to make progress through Q1 on Saturday.

Moto3

Moto3’s Friday came in the week the category’s long-term technical future was turned on its head. From 2028, the current 250 cc single-cylinder Moto3 machines are set to be replaced by a larger, heavier and much more powerful Yamaha-controlled platform, with the full background covered here: Yamaha CP2 Moto3 control bike to reshape class from 2028.

For now, though, the existing Moto3 formula remains as frantic as ever, and it was Joel Kelso who made the most of the session that mattered at Assen. Alvaro Carpe had actually set the outright fastest Moto3 lap of the day in the cooler morning FP1 session with a 1m40.869, but the afternoon Practice session decided the direct Q2 places, and Kelso was the rider on top when it counted.

The Australian put the GRYD Racing Honda to P1 with a 1m40.918, leading a Honda 1-2-3 from Guido Pini and team-mate Eddie O’Shea. It was Kelso’s first Moto3 session P1 of 2026, and his first since his Portimao pole late last season.

Pini was 0.216 behind Kelso, with O’Shea a further 0.033 back. Marco Morelli was fourth on the CFMOTO Aspar KTM, ahead of Adrian Cruces and Rico Salmela, with Carpe seventh after his FP1 benchmark. David Almansa was eighth despite a Turn 1 crash, followed by Marcos Uriarte and Brian Uriarte.

Championship leader Maximo Quiles was 11th, 0.598 from Kelso, but still safely through to Q2. Ryusei Yamanaka, Hakim Danish and Adrian Fernandez completed the top 14 and the automatic Q2 group.

Matteo Bertelle was the first rider to miss the cut in 15th, just ahead of Casey O’Gorman, Jesus Rios and Scott Ogden. Valentin Perrone was the biggest name in trouble, finishing 26th and last in the decisive Practice session.

The hot afternoon caught out plenty. Veda Pratama, Almansa, O’Gorman and Bertelle all fell during Moto3 Practice, with O’Gorman’s incident requiring ambulance attendance. Even so, the top 18 were covered by less than a second, so Saturday’s lightweight class qualifying should again be fierce.
