We race at Phillip Island
The MotoGP World Championship is preparing to face the second consecutive hat-trick, this time all in Asia. The first stop is in Australia on the splendid Phillip Island circuit. Jorge Martin and Francesco Bagnaia are separated by 10 points in the standings.
A year ago the Sprint was not held for climatic reasons and in the GP Jorge Martin risked a softer tire which ‘abandoned’ him one lap before the checkered flag. It was triumphant Johann Zarco (first and only success in MotoGP) ahead of Francesco Bagnaia.
The event will be broadcast live in full on Sky Sports MotoGPup TV8 Sunday’s races will be deferred, while all Saturday sessions from MotoGP Qualifying onwards up to the Sprint of the premier class they will also be broadcast live and unencrypted. Sprint also plans a free-to-air repeat on Saturday at 1pm on TV8. On FormulaPassion.it you will find live coverage of all the sessions that will see MotoGP on the track with the exception of FP1 and the warm-up. Below are the details of the television programming and the characteristics of the Phillip Island circuit.
