MotoGP Brazil FP1: Acosta surprises everyone, Márquez in the mix, Bezzecchi on the comeback

The MotoGP Brazil FP1 immediately provided spectacle and important clues ahead of the weekend. At the Goiânia circuit, made treacherous by the rain, Pedro Acosta set the best time, ahead of Jack Miller and Marco Bezzecchi.

A session that was anything but straightforward, marked by mixed conditions and a track that was difficult to read.

Weather chaos and a treacherous track in Goiânia

The opening session of MotoGP Brazil free practice was heavily affected by the weather. The asphalt, wet in places and dirty, put several riders in difficulty, making every lap an unknown.

In these conditions, more than outright speed, the ability to adapt made the difference.

MotoGP Brazil FP1 results: Acosta ahead of everyone

Once again, Pedro Acosta emerged, increasingly a leading rider in this MotoGP 2026 season.

Behind him:

Jack Miller, competitive thanks to a bold tyre choice

Marco Bezzecchi, improving at the end

Marc Márquez, leader for a long time in the session

Acosta showed great maturity in managing difficult conditions, avoiding mistakes and building the best time intelligently.

Márquez stars: a strong sign for the weekend

Among the most convincing names in the MotoGP Brazil GP there is without doubt Marc Márquez.

The Spaniard led the session for several minutes, showing an immediate feeling with the track and the Ducati. Even without finishing on top, his pace was among the strongest.

A clear sign: he will be one of the protagonists of the weekend.

MotoGP Brazil FP1: Bezzecchi between mistakes and comeback

Third place for Marco Bezzecchi, but with an up-and-down session. After some initial difficulties and small mistakes, the Italian managed to climb back up at the end.

The speed is there, but consistency still needs to improve.

Tyre strategy decisive in FP1

One of the key themes of MotoGP Brazil FP1 was the tyre choice.

Riders like Miller took a gamble on slicks, finding favourable conditions at times. A variable that could also influence qualifying and the race.

Analysis: what to expect from the weekend

This first session has already given important indications:

Acosta is ready to win

Márquez is fully in the fight

Bezzecchi remains competitive but inconsistent

The weather will be decisive

The MotoGP Brazil 2026 therefore opens with great uncertainty and guaranteed spectacle.
