Here are our Fantasy MotoGP tips for Barcelona: who are you picking for your lineup?
MotoGP doesn’t stop: after the French Grand Prix — won in both races by Jorge Martin — the championship heads to the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya for the final round of the first quarter of the season.
The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya
The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya is one of the most complete and technical tracks on the MotoGP calendar. Located in Montmeló, just outside Barcelona, the circuit is 4.657 km long and combines high-speed sections with highly technical sectors, testing every aspect of both bike and rider.

The long main straight leading into Turn 1 has always been one of the key overtaking spots, while the middle sector — especially Turn 10 and the sequence that follows — represents the technical heart of the circuit, where lap time is won or lost.
Absences: Marquez is OUT, Vinales returns!
The biggest blow for fantasy managers is clearly the absence of nine-time world champion Marc Marquez: following double surgery after his Le Mans Sprint crash, the Spaniard will miss the 2026 Catalan Grand Prix.
Surprisingly, Maverick Vinales returns after missing four races: the Tech3 rider, who is also expected to leave Gunther Steiner’s team, will be back on track after Jonas Folger replaced him in France.
