Brazil: New 2026 MotoGP World Championship standings
New 2026 MotoGP World Championship standings after Sunday's Brazilian Grand Prix at the Autodromo Internacional Ayrton Senna, Goiania, round 2 of 22.
Marco Bezzecchi and Aprilia team-mate Jorge Martin take over at the head of the 2026 MotoGP World Championship standings after a one-two finish in the Brazilian Grand Prix.
Marco Bezzecchi's fourth grand prix victory in a row puts the Italian 11 points clear of Jorge Martin, who celebrated his best-yet RS-GP result, with KTM's previous title leader Pedro Acosta dropping to third.
VR46's Fabio di Giannantonio gains three places and is the leading Ducati rider, with reigning champion Marc Marquez heading into next weekend's COTA MotoGP round 22-points from the top.
Gresini riders Alex Marquez and Fermin Aldeguer scored their first points of the season in Brazil.
Johann Zarco is the leading Honda rider in eleventh, while fellow Frenchman Fabio Quartararo (Yamaha) dropped from eleventh to 16th after his sprint heroics were followed by a pointless grand prix.
