The 2026 MotoGP title fight heads to Mandalika this weekend, with Marc Marquez closing in on the championship lead as he returns to a circuit where he has never finished a Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

The reigning champion won both the Sprint and Sunday race at Motegi to move within two points of Jorge Martin. Marquez now has 331 points to the Aprilia rider\u2019s 333, leaving little margin for error with six rounds remaining.<\/p>\n
