Austria MotoGP: Race weekend schedule | How to watch on TV

The Red Bull Ring in Spielberg welcomes MotoGP back a fortnight after Silverstone, where Francesco Bagnaia kept his title hopes alive by coming out on top.

Silverstone was a miserable race for Yamaha rider Fabio Quartararo whose ambition to retain his championship took a major hit.

Who will ever forget the sensational manner of Brad Binder’s victory at the Austrian MotoGP last year? Andrea Dovizioso won the previous two. This race has a way of throwing up a surprise winner from time to time.

Aleix Espargaro will fancy taking advantage of Quartararo’s bad race at Silverstone by reducing the deficit at the summit of the 2022 standings.
