Sergio Garcia sits third overall after a solid start to the season . The Valencian rider has notched up three victories for the Aspar GASGAS team , in different conditions : the clinical performance in the wet at the French Grand Prix , and the hectic holding of his nerve in a frantic last lap scrap at Barcelona .

Romano Fenati has enjoyed his best season since 2017 , winning the British GP in convincing style . He sits fourth overall and has experience of winning at this track back in 2017 . Then there is Jaume Masia and Niccolo Antonelli , who both started the year as championship favourties , but have fallen slightly short . Still , both remain fast and competitive , and could well challenge for victories this weekend .
