MotoGP 2026Round 12 – SilverstoneThe three-week summer break is over, and the MotoGP paddock is heading for Britain, with Silverstone hosting Round 12 and opening the second half of the 2026 World Championship. Silverstone – fast, wide and unforgivingBuilt on the site of a former Royal Air Force base, Silverstone first hosted the British motorcycle Grand Prix in 1977. Those results have elevated the second-year MotoGP rider to second in the championship, only 14 points behind Martín. Silverstone has produced eleven different MotoGP Grand Prix winners across its past eleven races and seven different pole-sitters at the past seven editions. David Almansa returns to the other side of the garage after illness forced him to miss the team’s home Grand Prix at Sachsenring.
