Some big question marks hang over Moto3™ in 2026. A class that often provides the tightest racing of the weekend, there will likely be little to choose between the leading names.
Those tipped for glory in 2026 already showed great promise in 2025. With last year ' s champion Jose Antonio Rueda and runner up Angel Piqueras moving up to Moto2™, a host of names will be vying for supremacy this year.
Last year ' s standout rookie Maximo Quiles( CFMoto Aspar Team) entered the year as the pre-season favourite, and classy wins in Brazil, Spain, France, Barcelona, Hungary and Assen did little to take away from that thought. On the evidence so far, Marc Marquez ' s protégé will be hard to beat.
Red Bull KTM Ajo ' s Alvaro Carpe will also be a major player in his second season in the class. As will rookie team mate Brian Uriarte, whose two wins at Mugello and the Sachsenring have propelled him to second in the championship.
Challenges are also likely to come from Liqui Moly Dynavolt Intact GP rider David Almansa after recovering from injury issues. All eyes are on Joel Kelso( Gryd – Mlav Racing) as he switches from KTM machinery to Honda. And watch out for Valentin Perrone( Red Bull KTM Tech3), who scored two podiums in the opening three rounds.
THE CLASS OFTEN PROVIDES THE TIGHTEST RACING OF THE WEEKEND.
