2021 MotoGP Italian GP – How to watch, session times & more

MotoGP travels to the Mugello circuit this weekend for the Italian Grand Prix. Here's the full schedule for what is the sixth round of the 2021 season.

Yamaha's Fabio Quartararo leads the championship heading to Italy, but is chased rapidly by a trio of Ducatis - including the in-form Jack Miller who won the last two races at Jerez and Le Mans.

Apart from Yamaha and Ducati, Suzuki is the only other manufacturer to bag a podium finish in 2021 so far courtesy of Joan Mir's third-place finish at Portimao.

Taakaki Nakagami secured Honda's best result of the season with fourth at Jerez, while the returning Marc Marquez - who briefly led the French GP before suffering two crashes - is yet to break inside the top five.

The situation isn't much better at KTM, whose performances have gone downhill following a breakthrough 2020 season last year.
