The Sepang International Circuit, spanning 5.543 km, is known for its long straights, sweeping corners, and challenging tropical conditions. High temperatures and humidity will push both riders and machines to their limits across the weekend.

Free practice sessions begin on Friday morning, followed by qualifying on Saturday afternoon. The Malaysian MotoGP main race takes place on Sunday, 26 October, at 15:00 local time.

With the independent title already secured, Álex Márquez heads into Sepang free from points pressure and focused on another strong finish. Fermín Aldeguer, meanwhile, looks to prove that his Mandalika win was not a one-off, but the beginning of a consistent run at the front.

The Malaysian round offers BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP another key chance to extend their recent success and carry their form into the season finale.
