TV / Streaming: CNBC

Another big race weekend is upon us, with MotoGP heading to Japan for the next race on the schedule. Including this one, there are now 7 races remaining in the 2023 season, with the championship battle heating up. The recent races have seen the gap at the top close rather dramatically, which means that every single point up for grabs is becoming more and more valuable with each passing race. It does look as though we are heading into a 2-horse race, but there is one rider who might make it even more interesting.

Francesco Bagnaia

For a while, it looked as though Bagnaia was going to cruise to his second straight world championship without too much trouble, but recent results have put that very much in doubt. It all began with him missing a race in Spain, which he followed with a podium finish in San Marino, only to be forced to retire in the last race. Those 2 missed races mean that he left a lot of points out on the track, allowing the chasing racers to draw a little closer. Right now, Bagnaia maintains a 13-point lead at the top, so he really needs something from this one to stay in the lead. He won in Japan in 2018, but that was at the Moto2 level.

Jorge Martin

Martin has really made things interesting by picking up big points in the 2 races where Bagnaia had none. He had a win in San Marino, bookmarking that victory with a pair of podium finishes to get withing striking distance of the overall lead. That’s a great return to form after a disappointing 3-race run that seemed to have taken him out of the championship picture. This just shows you how quickly things can change. Martin had a top 3 finish in Japan last year and needs more of the same to keep the pressure on at the top.

Marco Bezzecchi

This is where things really begin to get interesting, as Bezzecchi is still close enough to be a threat, although he needs a great run of form to hit in the final 7 races of the season. He is certainly on the way to doing that, finishing 2nd in San Marino, followed by a win in India in the last race on the schedule. The problem he has now is that he did not have a very good run in Japan last year, finishing in 10th in that race. He will need to be a whole lot better this time around if he is to stay with the top 2.

Brad Binder

Binder is 4th in the standings, and while that would certainly be a very decent accomplishment, there is probably no way that he can break into the top 3 at this point. The problem for Binder is that he can’t get over the hump and get his first win at the MotoGP level, with his last victories coming in Moto2. That said, he might be a good bet to land on the podium this weekend, especially when you consider that he was 2nd in Japan last year.
