INDONESIAN GP WON’T AIR LIVE ON GERMAN TV

MotoGP’s Indonesian Grand Prix is scheduled for October 9–11, 2026, with sessions and races taking place in the early morning for European viewers. The weekend includes practice and qualifying for Moto3, Moto2 and MotoGP, a 13-lap MotoGP Sprint on Saturday, and the 27-lap Grand Prix on Sunday. The source reports no rider or team quotes.

Broadcast access varies by country. In Germany, the Indonesian round is not among the 12 selected MotoGP events scheduled for live, free-to-air coverage on DF1 in 2026. Those selected events will also be available through ServusTV On and Red Bull TV; coverage of the other meetings will consist of highlights. MotoGP’s official website and Sky Sport carry all 22 championship weekends, but both services require payment. RTL is due to show selected races in Germany from 2027.

Austrian viewers can watch the championship free on ServusTV’s television and digital platforms, including Red Bull TV. ServusTV’s Saturday coverage begins at 4:40 a.m. with MotoGP qualifying, followed at 6:40 a.m. by the Moto3 and Moto2 qualifying sessions and the Sprint. Sunday’s live coverage of all three class races starts at 5:20 a.m.; ServusTV On is available from Friday.

In Switzerland, the SRG’s rights are shared across SRF, RTS and RSI. SRF zwei is scheduled to show the MotoGP Sprint live from 8:50 a.m. on Saturday and the Grand Prix from 8:50 a.m. on Sunday. Both races will also be streamed live through SRF’s online service and sports app. RTS2 has the same start time for its Saturday Sprint and Sunday race broadcasts. RSI’s LA2 schedule begins earlier: Saturday qualifying coverage starts at 5 a.m., with the Sprint and the other classes’ qualifying sessions from 6:40 a.m. On Sunday, LA2’s live coverage of all classes begins at 5:55 a.m., with later race replays and a MotoGP-race highlights programme also listed.
