Good afternoon to all of you, dear readers of FormulaPassion.it. We are live to bring you the Sprint Race of the 2026 Aragon GP MotoGP, which will award the first points of the weekend after the 11 laps scheduled for the short Saturday race.

Starting from pole position will be Marco Bezzecchi, who overturned predictions by beating the favorite Marc Marquez in Q2 with a phenomenal time. However, watch out for the race pace, as the battle will be wide open also considering a rather sharp Alex Marquez and the other two home Aprilia riders, Raul Fernandez and Jorge Martin, who start right behind, in the second row.

A bit further back is Pecco Bagnaia: the Turin rider easily passed the Q1 cut, but then had to defend, with only one new soft tire available, in the decisive phase of qualifying, not managing to go beyond eighth on the grid.
